Music is used to create an atmosphere of Sorrow and Remorse in Rues Death Scene. - We see Katniss dealing with the Slaughter of her young friend Rue. For example, the tempo is slow, the dynamics are quiet and the key  is minor to reflect the emotional roller-coaster that Katniss is feeling. Like the music, Katniss moves slowly and methodically to cover Rues Body in white flowers. As she finishes , the music builds in volume, showing the increasing intensity of her anger and grief towards the Capitol. This makes us understand the pain experienced by the families of the tributes when they are killed each year. This was done to enable the viewer to feel the characters emotions. This worked well with  the use of while flowers to symbolise rues innocence + purity and the high angle shop making her weak + vulnerable. combined with the music we are shown that Rue is a victim of the cruelty if the Capitol
