He also argured that formal functions, narrative functions and emotionalfunctions are the three main film music’s functions. Chapter Four, namely PeterLarson’s research on the Western film music history. This part focuses on theresearch core, research approach and history consciousness, to find thecharacteristics of Peter Larson’s research on the Western film music function’shistory. Chapter Five, namely Peter Larson discusses film music analysis. Itintroduces the method of analysing film music which established by Peter Larson,and the philosophy of the method. The dissertation’s conclusion is mainly about thefeature and deficiencies of Peter Larson’s music theory, as well as its theoreticalvalue and practical significance.
