The Art of Repetition

Matthew Sweet look at music for films in which repetition is a key point in the plot, and scores in which musical repetition is stylistically important.

Matthew Sweet explores film music that uses repetition to convey a certain mood or theme.

From the iconic, two-note theme that represents the killer shark in Jaws, to the high octane action of John Barry鈥檚 007.

Tune in for a playlist of trailblazing soundtracks which incorporate repetition to illustrate action, adventure and sometimes, spine-chilling terror.
