The FMJ Research Project

Throughout the 1920s, German-language print journalism addressed fundamental questions about the encounter between music and cinema.

Prominent composers, musicologists, film theorists, and philosophers contributed to this broad discussion on the proper role and design of film music, encompassing a wide range of arguments and perspectives.

This journalistic discourse on film music forms the core of the FMJ research project. The research team will examine a representative selection of articles, essays, and reviews published in German-language music and cinema periodicals from around 1907 to the early 1930s. A selected corpus of sources will be incorporated into a digital open-access database. The comprehensive scholarly exploration of these documents will lead to a monographic treatise on the “historical aesthetics” of silent film music.
