Abstract

V originále

The contribution focuses on the educational use of film music, i.e., the various approaches teachers may choose when working with this kind of music production. It explains the advantages of film music in education compared to other types of music and presents film music not as a specific genre but rather as their intersection where we find both mainstream and avant-garde genres, not to mention all kinds of world and ethnic music. In this regard, certain film soundtracks, which are probably generally known for pupils/students, can help get the listeners closer to genres they may not like but might accept as a part of a complex film work. The second part of the aims at chosen functions that music takes on in a film. The interpretation of those functions is supplemented with audio-visual examples and possible use options in education.
