Synopsis
Bollywood Sounds surveys seventy years of Hindi film song as a cosmopolitan and overwhelmingly popular music of India. Author Jayson Beaster-Jones analyzes more than twenty landmark songs and provides insights into song production practices and influential music makers, showing how the industry has consistently mediated a variety of musical influences to create a robust and long-lived genre., Bollywood Sounds focuses on the songs of Indian films in their historical, social, commercial, and cinematic contexts. Author Jayson Beaster-Jones takes readers through the highly collaborative compositional process, highlighting the contributions of film directors, music directors (composers), lyricists, musicians, and singers in song production. Through close musical and multimedia analysis of more than twenty landmark compositions, Bollywood Sounds illustrates how the producers of Indian film songs have long mediated a variety of musical styles, instruments, and performance practices to create a uniquely cosmopolitan music genre. As an exploration of the music of seventy years of Hindi films, Bollywood Sounds provides long-term historical insights into film songs and their musical and cinematic conventions in ways that will appeal both to scholars and to newcomers to Indian cinema., Bollywood Sounds focuses on the songs of Indian films in their historical, social, commercial, and cinematic contexts.
