Hollywood Composers Create New Music For Silent Classics At SILENT FILMS LIVE III
This star-studded event brings together highly-acclaimed Hollywood film, television and video game composers to reimagine new scores to classic silent films.
Bandrika Studios and Biscetti Productions present Silent Films Live III hosted by Suzanne Lloyd, granddaughter of silent film star Harold Lloyd and under the baton of award-winning conductor Angel Velez (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Miss World 2022).
This star-studded event brings together highly-acclaimed Hollywood film, television and video game composers to reimagine new scores to classic silent films while raising money for Education Through Music - Los Angeles, an organization that supports 49 schools and over 21,000 students across Los Angeles County. Adding to the silent film era theme, the event will take place at Bandrika Studios, a space custom-built to showcase Hollywood's original 1,500 pipe Wurlitzer organ. The pipe organ dates back to 1928 when it resided on the Fox Studios lot and was used in classic scores including Journey to the Center of the Earth, Patton, The Sound of Music, many more.
Each evening of the two night event, April 14th and 15th, will feature the silent film concert at 8pm, with exclusive tickets available to attend a pre-concert interview moderated by host Suzanne Lloyd along with a post-concert reception. Additional limited tickets are available to tour Bandrika Studios and the famed Wurlitzer pipe organ. Original promotional art for Silent Films Live 3 and other items will be part of the silent auction each evening. Tickets available at www.SilentFilmsLive.com.
