National Film Score Day
National Film Score Day honors the musical masterpieces called Film Scores and, more specifically, the very talented composers who produce them on April 3rd.
Imagine your favorite film without a few well-placed notes, raising the tone of a dramatic on-screen exchange. A chase scene without rousing orchestral music is raising the stakes. Is Star Wars, Jaws, The Lord of the Rings films, or the Harry Potter films the same without their complementary musical scores? Will we cower so easily in fear of our seats without the film score? Is our imaginations so eager to escape from reality? Music lifts emotions. It also sharpens our senses and focuses our attention. Without a doubt, the film score is the fiery soul of a film.
We quickly identify our top films in film history simply by a few lines of a film's orchestral soundtrack. When we hear the Film Scores we love the most, we hear Perennial masterpieces and modern-day blockbusters. Despite years or decades, those chords can often spark a rush of fond memories. With each new film released, a talented composer creates another stunning work of musical art, eliciting a new set of lasting movie memories.

Film score FAQ
Q. What is the difference between a film score and a soundtrack?
A. Traditionally, film scores have been accompanied by an orchestra's instrumental music. They enhance the mood for a scene, accompany a particular character, and even set the tone for the entire film. Film scores are both open and close to a film. The soundtrack is a collection of recorded songs chosen to accompany specific scenes or scenes from the film. They may be already existing songs or original songs written specifically for the film. The film score is also included in the soundtrack.
Q. Do documentaries include film scores?
A. Many documentaries include film scores as part of their final piece. A documentary film score helps shape the mood and tone of the scenes playing out on the screen, just as the film score for your favorite thriller raises the emotion and vigor of the film.
