That means we won't count songs from musicals; movie theme songs; jazz, rock and pop; or the music for TV programmes
That would probably disqualify Halloween, Suspiria, Tenebrae, and even Local Hero – I was amazed that my favourite film theme – 'Going Home (Theme of the Local Hero)' – wasn't in it.
However, if they are only including music "from the classical repertoire", then that brilliant and beloved piece of music wouldn't qualify. I listened to it first thing this morning!
