Composers deserve acknowledgement too

Postby Christopher » Thu Oct 23, 2008 1:00 pm

The CAIN (Conflict Archive on the INternet) website contains a list of Movies with 'the Troubles' as a theme (1968 to present). An acknowledgement is given to the members of the cast, the directors, the producers and people responsible for the screenplay and script of each movie but in each instance the composer's name has been omitted. Does anyone know of a good reason why a lengthy list of composers has been ignored? Listing all the musicians who played the theme music might be over the top but at least their input could have been acknowledged in a small way by mentioning the composer's name. In fact, when one thinks about the matter, the musicians could have been acknowledged by mentioning the name of the group which played the music.
