Summary/Abstract: he third Music and the Moving Image conference, which took place at New York University at the end of May, was the crowning event of this year’s hectic activity of the NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development and its programme director for film music, Ron Sadoff. Just a couple of months earlier, the school launched a new online journal of the same name dedicated to the relationship between music and ‘the entire universe of moving images’ published by the University of Illinois Press; it organised a Film Scoring Workshop in Memory of Buddy Baker a week before the conference and had two performances at the Tribeca Film Festival of Rene Clair’s Two Timid Souls with a new score written by past and present Steinhardt students and conducted by Gillian Anderson, co-editor of the journal and member of the conference committee. A three-day-long conference which hosted 72 delegates from all over the world and presented the latest research dedicated to music and visual media was indeed an impressive way to conclude such fruitful activity.
