12、nt; when the Lumiere films were shown at the first public film exhibition in the United States in February 1896, they were accompanied by piano improvisations on popular tunes. 2. At first, the music played bore no special relationship to the films; an accompaniment of any kind was sufficient. Withi
13、n a very short time, however, the incongruity of playing lively music to a solemn film became apparent, and film pianists began to take some care in matching their pieces to the mood of the film. 3.

17、s became more explicit, and so emerged the musical cue sheet containing indications of mood, the titles of suitable pieces of music, and precise directions to show where one piece led into the next. 5. Certain films had music especially composed for them. The most famous of these early special score
