Musical scores enrich the content they accompany, whether in film, television or even video games. Composers write music to support or enhance emotional moments and to help establish an overall mood or tone.

“City Lights” music contributor Dr. Scott Stewart has been studying and teaching this genre of music for decades.

This episode of “City Lights” focuses on the soundtracks featured in video games released this past fall, like  Final Fantasy VII, Elden Ring and Dragon’s Dogma.
