We try to understand the film's sound/music conception and its relations with Ruttmann's sound conception revealed in his texts. Our central objective is to observe and analyse the music of the silent documentary film and its theory, based on Ruttmann¡¯s film and texts and the original score composed by Edmund Meisel. %K Film music %K Film sound %K Documentary film %K Silent film %K Walter Ruttmann. %U http://www.doc.ubi.pt/12/dt_claudiney_carrasco.pdf
