The acclaimed Philip Glass score to Tod Browning’s 1931 film classic, Dracula, originally composed for the Kronos Quartet, will be performed live to film by the Orange Road Quartet, The Cuker and Stern Graduate String Quartet in Residence at the Mannes School of Music. The quartet will perform with guest conductor and Mannes alum, Michael Riesman, in their concert debut at The New School.
Just in time for Halloween…This event is open to the public and free with registration!
The (Un)Silent Film series has been critical in advancing the resurgence of film screenings with live music and has been hosted by Matthew Broderick, Bill Irwin, Rob Bartlett, Ed Rothstein, and Michael Bacon.
(Un)Silent Film nights have presented the world premieres of works composed for The Birds and The Immigrant (by Nathan Kamal and Alexis Cuadrado respectively), a New York premiere of a score by Hollywood composer Craig Marks for the film Sherlock, Jr., and Charlie Chaplin’s original scores for Gold Rush and other Chaplin classics. The most recent (Un)Silent presented the world premiere of a new score to the iconic film, METROPOLIS, composed by Mannes student, Amir Sanjari.
Enjoy the thrills, chills and humor of this classic as we launch into Halloween!
