What is the role of music in cinema and why it is such an important part of the storytelling process? How does music increase our capacity for empathy and wonder?

Fabrizio Mancinelli is an Italian-American composer, songwriter, and conductor, best known for his musical contributions to the world of cinema. As a songwriter, he has created original scores for The Land of Dreams,The Snow Queen 3, The Boat, and the upcoming animated drama Mushka, among others. In 2017, he led the orchestral recording for the Academy Award-winning Green Book, and he recently scored the documentary Food 2050, which premiered at the UN Climate Change Conference in 2022.

"I really love to read books of art because I grew up in a Renaissance Medieval city. It's totally different to go for a walk and look at old buildings. You look inside the windows, and you see frescos and art. Then I have a lot of friends who are artists, and I enjoy seeing their art. That's my fuel. That is my inspiration. And, of course, every music that gets thrown at me is an inspiration in any other way because also there is one thing I admire most and that is what I cannot do. Something that's totally different from me, I get amazed and am in awe because there is always this will to learn. And I hope I will have that until my last day, that I will be able to be amazed until my last day."
