David Newman discusses Steven Spielberg's new West Side Story Film, Part 2

from Anthony Plog on Music

In Part 2, I ask David to talk about three songs in particular - Maria, America, and Somewhere. We not only discuss Bernstein's use of the tritone - not only for Maria but throughout the score. In addition David talks about how the movie is different from the original musical production of 1957. Also fascinating was a discussion of Steven Spielberg's use of camera movement to compliment and flow with the music.
