The Kodály Method
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kod%C3%A1ly_Method
The Kodály Method, also referred to as the Kodály Concept, is an approach to music education developed in Hungary during the mid-twentieth century by Zoltán Kodály. His philosophy of education served as inspiration for the method, which was then developed over a number of years by his associates.
As filmmakers, we put music in to engage the viewer on an emotional level.
These films are not purely informational, and as Cox said at the time, presenting science on film can be ‘a rather more cinematic experience.
At the end of the day it’s a piece of film on TV and it’s not a lecture.’
But, with music being a highly personal art, soundtracks do appear to be divisive.
