Forests

A selection of film music inspired by Radio 3's Forests Season presented by Matthew Sweet

A selection of film music inspired by Radio 3's Forests Season presented by Matthew Sweet. Forests have proved a rich environment for film, whether as a place where a character can find his or herself; a place to ponder our relationship with nature and the environment; a place of refuge and escape; or a place of terror and of nightmares. Matthew takes us on a film music journey through the forest vibrant in all its hues, featuring scores as varied as 'Avatar', 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes', 'Aguirre Wrath of God', 'The Lost City of Z' and 'Friday the 13th'.
