SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "Love's Crucible"
DESCRIPTION:Sa. 28.04.2018\n8 pm\nCinema Black Box \nInfo:\nGeneral: \nSweden 1922Directed by: Victor SjöströmScreenplay: Hjalmar Bergman & Victor SjöströmCinematography: Julius JaenzonSwedish intertitles (the German translation will be spoken live)Duration: approx. 93 minutes \nBrief Overview: \nIn a Renaissance city\, Ursula is trapped in a loveless marriage with the sculptor Master Anton. She\, however\, loves the young neighbor’s son\, Bertram. When the relationship becomes known\, Ursula buys poison for herself and her lover from a monk\, but the monk switches the poison. When Anton catches Ursula attempting to take the supposed poison\, he suffers a heart attack and dies. Ursula herself is now suspected of murder… \nMusical Score:New musical score for cinema organ and simultaneous piano by Wilfried Kaets. \nThe musical score is structurally based on the film music dramaturgy of the silent film era\, using some themes from 1920s film libraries\, but it is a new composition. This is true both in terms of the sound colors of the historical organ and piano as well as the actual musical notation\, which presents a contemporary composer’s approach. This results in an exciting balance of “old images and new sounds\,” which do not run contrapuntally alongside or even “against” the film\, but instead create a dramaturgically cohesive connection. \nMore information about the film: “Love’s Crucible”

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "All Quiet on the Western Front"
DESCRIPTION:Info:\nSaturday\, 28.04.20188:00 PMKino Black Box \nGeneral: \nOriginal Title: All Quiet on the Western FrontUSA 1930Directed by: Lewis MilestoneScreenplay: Maxwell Anderson\, based on the novel by Erich Maria RemarqueCinematography: Arthur EdesonDuration: approx. 140 minutes \nBrief Overview: \n“On the front\, you’re either dead or alive\, that’s all.” All Quiet on the Western Front tells the story of the young student Paul\, who enlists to fight for Germany during World War I. His teacher encourages not only him but also the entire senior class to sign up for military service. After a short time\, the initial enthusiasm for fighting for the Fatherland fades\, and the young soldiers long only to return home. On a home leave\, Paul visits his family and realizes that he has nothing in common with them or his old teacher anymore. Back at the front\, he encounters even younger soldiers\, sent into battle as cannon fodder… \nMusical Score:Kaets makes use of the unique sonic capabilities of the “giant instrument” organ in a variety of ways\, complementing and contrasting it with percussion and sound effects. With this\, he composes a contemporary film score that respectfully allows the old\, immensely powerful\, and still influential images to breathe new life while still honoring their historical context. \nMore Informations about: “All Quiet on the Western Front“

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "Das Mädchen mit der Hutschachtel"
DESCRIPTION:Sat. 27.02.20218:00 PMFilm Museum Düsseldorf\nInfo\nShort and Sweet : \nOriginal Title: Девушка с коробкой / Dewuschka s korobkoiSoviet Union 1927Director: Boris Barnet \nDuration: approx. 70 minutes \nAction: \nThe young Natascha\, who lives with her grandfather in a modest\, almost impoverished hut near Moscow\, is employed in Madame Irène’s hat shop during the time of the so-called New Economic Plan. This was when the Soviet leadership made small concessions to private initiatives and the private economy. Natascha’s boss and her husband have falsely informed the housing committee that Natascha has rented a room in their house. This little white lie allows Irène’s husband to finally have a room to himself\, where he can laze around as he pleases. Fogeljew\, who works for the state railway\, has been in love with Natascha for a long time. However\, she has set her sights on Ilja\, the young\, homeless student she met on a train journey… \nAbout the Film: \n“The Girl with the Hatbox” is one of the rare examples of a Soviet silent film comedy. The film\, directed by Boris Barnet in the winter of 1926/1927\, made lead actress Anna Stern\, in the title role\, the most famous female film star of late Soviet silent cinema. Even today\, the film remains fresh and lively\, cleverly incorporating elements of the “slapstick comedies” that were known at the time\, especially from Hollywood\, and were also popular in Russia. \nMusical Score: \nNew music version by Wilfried Kaets for historical cinema organ and simultaneous piano. \nWilfried Kaets\, with over 30 years of experience\, is one of the most seasoned silent film accompanists in Germany. For “The Girl with the Hatbox”\, he creates a kind of “cine-historical silent film music” using forms and sounds that\, played on a Welte cinema organ and a simultaneously played piano\, would have sounded as they might have in a cinema in 1927. \nMore Informations about: “Das Mädchen mit der Hutschachtel“

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "GREED"
DESCRIPTION:Sat\, April 9\, 20228:00 PMRochus Church\nInfo:\n  \nGeneral:USA 1924 – Director: Erich von Stroheim – Duration: approx. 140 min.Screenplay: June Mathis and E. v. Stroheim\, based on the novel McTeague by Frank NorrisCast: Zasu Pitts – Trina; Gibson Gowland – McTeague; Jean Hersholt – Marcus; and othersMusic: New arrangement for organ and live electronics by Wilfried KaetsBefore the concert: Introductory talk by film expert Joachim SteinigewegParticipants: Wilfried Kaets – Organ and Live Electronics; Joachim Steinigeweg – Talk and Silent Film Technology \nAbout:Greed is a silent film classic from 1924 by Erich von Stroheim about the theme of human greed.It tells the story of a woman who\, after winning the lottery\, becomes obsessed with money\, ruins her marriage\, and loses her social environment. \nPlot:McTeague\, a simple man\, works in a mine. He meets Trina\, the fiancée of his friend Marcus\, falls in love with her\, and marries her.When Trina wins a large sum in the lottery\, Marcus becomes overwhelmed with envy and believes he is entitled to a share of the money… \nMusic Arrangement:The music is designed in homage to the great silent film scores of the 1920s.It is intended to sound as it might have in 1924\, with a typical cinema organist\, and aims to present the audience with a unique sense of the era and emotional color. \nBeginning of Holy Week:For decades\, Rochus Church has been a place where experimental happenings have found a forum and received support.In the series “Concerts for the Beginning of Holy Week\,” multimedia contemporary and experimental projects are regularly presented\, seeking to approach the “drama of love and devotion” — also as a spiritual search beyond familiar paths.The silent film Greed explores the darker sides of human nature: rage\, despair\, and the futility of human action.It invites the audience to confront fundamental human questions and reflect on themes like guilt\, the evil in people\, and redemption.Rochus Church is the only known church in Germany equipped with a permanently installed professional cinema projector\, including a soundproof booth in the gallery.Wilfried Kaets is one of the most experienced and longest-serving silent film musicians in Germany. He has composed and performed live music for more than 300 silent films\, which he has presented worldwide.He was the first composer/performer since the silent film era to regularly present historical films with live music in churches\, starting in the 1980s\, thereby initiating the renaissance of this performance form in Germany. \nDirections:Address:Rochus ChurchRochusstr. 10050827 Cologne \nMore Informations about: Greed\n  \n
