Ladies and Gentlemen, May I introduce you to a man who has done more for the preservation and sheer enjoyment of film music than anybody else, and this without composing a single note of music himself...He just likes to write about the subject in groundbreaking books, manifold articles and liner notes . He enjoys producing classical soundtrack albums, he can be heard on radio... He has written over 30 books on Hollywood and film in general, he is known in the Hollywood community as a charming and pleasant Master of Ceremonies. He is one of the most respected authorities on film music without being academic, combining his great knowledge with a showbiz attitude acquired over many years spent working for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. In short, Ladies and Gentlemen, would you welcome the one and only Tony Thomas!
