Testimonials 

"Beyond the Screen is a much needed resource for Secondary Classrooms, as it provides a modern selection of composers' film scores that shine a light on Australian storytelling today. Dr. Joanna Drimatis has delved into the varied musical material to present a rich analysis of the music in a digestible format for teachers and students alike. I hope this kit will prove to students that Australian film composers are just as interesting and compete highly against their international counterparts, and that they grow an appreciation for our home-grown talent."

Jessica Wells, composer
