Several of the contributions in this collection were presented at the 2018 conference ‘When the Music Takes Over. Musical Numbers in Film and Television’ (University of Salzburg), which grew out of the research project ‘Musical Numbers in Austrian Silent Cinema 1912–1933’ (FWF P 28111) by Claus Tieber and Anna K. Windisch. We are grateful to the department of art history, musicology, and dance studies at the University of Salzburg and its chair Nils Grosch for their invaluable help in orga-nizing this event. We want to thank all our colleagues who shared their papers with us, especially those whose inspiring contributions could not be included in this book. A selection of keynotes and papers presented at the conference formed the starting point for a more specific approach to musical numbers in cinema, focusing on theory, silent and early sound cinema, and world cinema, for which we were able to find additional contributors. We sincerely thank our commissioning editor Lina Abou-jieb from Palgrave for her interest and support of the project, and for her never-ending patience from the start. Thanks also to the anonymous readers of our proposal for their input and suggestions which helped to focus this collection.
