Amongs these scholars, there are those who believe that music alone is capable to narrate; others believe that the composer is narrating through music; while some believe the listeners hear the music as though it is narrating regardless of the composer's intent; and those who believe that music cannot narrate due to its inherent lack of a narrator.3 Film scores in particular; provide an analyst with literal objects and stories to which the music's meaning can be compared to.
