SOUND OF CINEMA - 231. MUSIC FOR DRAGONS (320kbs-m4a/134mb/58mins)
BBC Radio 3 broadcast: 2nd February 2019

The film franchise is a major part of the modern cinematic world, and the role of the composer is a major contributory factor to the success of the franchise. Matthew Sweet looks back on music for some notable modern franchises and talks to composer John Powell about the way he approached scoring the Dreamworks franchise 'How To Train Your Dragon', the third of which - 'The Hidden World' - has just been launched.

The programme also features music by John Williams, Howard Shore and Brian Tyler.
