Murrayfield and Blackburn primary schools welcomed Patrick Doyle, who has composed music for a huge number of famous film and movie projects.
Classically-trained composer Patrick, who is originally from Uddingston in neighbouring South Lanarkshire, shared some his experiences from his glittering career in theatre, film and TV.
His talk provided a fascinating insight into the role of composer, as well as sharing incredible tales of his time on film sets around the world, which has included working with legendary directors such as Kenneth Branagh and Mike Newell and on famous movies including Carlito's Way, Nanny McPhee and Bridget Jones' Diary.
Blackburn and Murrayfield Headteacher Kevin McCabe said: "It was fantastic to welcome Patrick Doyle to speak to pupils from both Murrayfield and Blackburn primaries.
"Patrick has had an amazing career composing music for a wide-range of top films and movies, and shared stories from his time working on them.
"Many thanks to Patrick for giving up his time to come to speak to us, and perhaps inspire some of our pupils to consider a career in music or the arts in the future."
