Composer and good friend, Richard Einhorn just signed on to be part of The Visual Passion Experience. On Saturday July 28 at 7:00 pm we will be screening the 1928 Carl Dryer film, The Passion of Joan of Arc.
Mr. Einhorn wrote the contemporary soundtrack to this silent black and white masterpiece. The soundtrack music, known as Voices of Light, is an amazing example of how music can help define emotional drama in a silent film. It is a tour de fource musical masterpiece in it's own right and you won't want to miss this.
Before we screen the film, Mr. Einhorn will discuss how the film inspired Voices of Light and what was involved in the process. He will also talk about how live orchestras have accompanied the film in various venues throughout the world.
