Review: "Goldmark evaluates how music works in an animated universe. Reminding readers of the larger context. In which films are produced and viewed, Tunes for 'Toons shows that studios employed culturally charged music to inspire their stories and explores the degree to which composers integrated stylistic elements of jazz and the classics into cartoon scores."--BOOK JACKET.
