Details: Today, as in yesteryear, fairy tales continue to inhabit our imaginations. Composers adapted the magical world of the fairy tale for their own purposes, taking inspiration from sonnets and story fragments, and human sensation. Closer to home, composers of movie music make particular use of the fairy-tale world, with its structural features such as quests, multiple setbacks and triumph over oneself. Composers such as Hisaishi, Dompierre, Rota and Morricone, have composed many unforgettable soundtracks that help extend the cinematic world beyond the mere image.
