SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "The Thief of Bagdad"
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, 06. April 2024\,\n8 pm\nCologne\, Bischofsgartenstr. 1\nAdmission: 7 €  \nInfo\nGeneral:\n\nThe Thief of Bagdad\nUSA\, 1924\nDirected by: Raoul Walsh\nRunning time: 147 min\n16mm silent film\, English intertitles \n\nShort and Sweet:\nA clever thief competes with a Mongolian ruler for the hand of a beautiful princess.\nHowever\, what begins as a game unexpectedly turns into true love\, complete with adventurous complications…\nMusical Score:\n\n\nNew musical score by Wilfried Kaets for piano and sound playback: \nThe music is composed as a reminiscence of the great silent film scores of the 1920s.\nIt shifts between cinematic-historical\, contemporary\, and even experimental sounds—breathing “emotional life” into the film’s lavish images while also giving musical space to the director’s imaginative and experimental ideas. \n\nAbout:\nActor Douglas Fairbanks himself came up with the idea for this adventure tale from One Thousand and One Nights\, wrote the screenplay\, and took on the role of producer.\nAt the time\, he was at the height of his Hollywood career.\nAs a laughing thief and braggart\, he roams the streets of the oriental city of Baghdad\, which is under the rule of the Caliph.\nWith charm and brawn\, he cleverly uses his many talents to get by each day.\nBut ultimately\, he wants to prove himself worthy of winning the princess’s heart and\, as a heroic fighter\, overcomes numerous difficult trials.\nThis fantasy adventure—featuring special effects like a journey on a flying carpet and stylistic elements of expressionist cinema—is considered one of the masterpieces of silent film and remains an absolute must-see even 100 years later. \nMore Infos about the Movie: “The Thief of Bagdad”

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde "
DESCRIPTION:Sa\, 16. November 2024\,\n8pm\nBischofsgartenstr. 1\nEntry 7 € \n  \nInfo:\nGeneral:\nDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde\nUSA 1920\nRegister: John S. Robertson\n80 Min \nShort and Sweet:\nThe young\, virtuous doctor Dr. Jekyll is a respected scientist and benefactor who treats the needy for free at his clinic. He has little time for his fiancée\, Millicent\, so her future father-in-law decides to test him by tempting him with seductive entertainment at a nightclub.\nIn an attempt to resist possible temptations\, Jekyll comes up with the idea of separating the good and evil in the human soul. In his laboratory\, he develops a serum that transforms him into the ruthless Mr. Hyde\, through whom he wreaks havoc.\nJekyll increasingly withdraws from public life because he can barely control the effects of the potion and is unable to reverse the transformations. Or does Jekyll even take pleasure in the cruelty of his alter ego…?!” \nMusical Score:\nNew music version for solo piano by Wilfried KaetsThe music was created as a reminiscence of the great tradition of silent film music from the 1920s in Germany.It is structurally based on the film music dramaturgical approaches of the silent film era\, and also incorporates some themes from film archives of the 1920s\, but it is a new composition.This creates an exciting balance of ‘old images’ and ‘new sounds\,’ which do not simply run contrapuntally alongside or against the film\, but generate a dramaturgically coherent integration. \nThe music will sound as it might have in a cinema in 1901 – it aims to bring the qualities of the film to life in its own musical language\, closely aligned with the original material\, breathing acoustic life into the silent performance. \n\nAbout:\n“Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde from 1920 is a film adaptation of the story The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by the British author Robert Louis Stevenson.The dual role is superbly portrayed by the famous stage actor John Barrymore.With his pantomimic performance of gestures and facial expressions\, he carries out the transformation from the flawless gentleman Jekyll into the monstrous Mr. Hyde for the first time in a single shot\, without makeup or special effects.”

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "The ancient Law"
DESCRIPTION:Sa. 03.05.25\nRheinbach\, Church St. Martin\n8:30 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nInfo:\nGeneral\n\n\n\nHere’s the translation of the text to English: \nGermany 1923\nDirector: E. A. Dupont\nLength: approx. 135 minutes (without intermission)\nNew musical score for organ\, Jewish chant\, percussion\, and glass harp by Wilfried Kaets\nCast: Henny Porten\, Ernst Deutsch\, Ruth Weyer\, and others. \n\n\n\nShort and Sweet:\nIn the middle of the 19th century\, the rabbi’s son\, Baruch\, decides to leave his Galician shtetl against his father’s wishes to become an actor. \nHe first joins a traveling theater company\, where Austrian Archduchess Elisabeth Theresia takes a liking to him and uses her influence to secure him an engagement at the Vienna Burgtheater.Baruch succeeds in becoming a celebrated and successful star. The “Romeo with temple curls\,” portrayed by Ernst Deutsch\, wins the heart of the Duchess.This opens the path to assimilation\, but it is a rocky one\, forcing him to choose between his traditional faith and values and his new environment\, resulting in painful decisions. \nBaruch returns home\, where his childhood love\, Esther\, has been waiting for him. He marries her and takes her to Vienna.His father\, Rabbi Mayer\, is horrified by this life and disowns his son…When he later attends a performance of Don Carlos with his son\, he is deeply impressed by his son’s acting talent\, sees it as a grace from God\, and forgives him. \nThe story contrasts the (faith-based) views of different generations and professions (e.g.\, the deeply religious rabbi versus the world of actors\, which he believes to be sinful)\, as well as the prejudices of country and city (a small Jewish shtetl versus Vienna’s big city life)\, and the racist prejudices of the other actors against “the Jew.” These conflicting worlds stand symbolically for the necessary tolerance that humanity requires. \nThe film’s newly restored version\, based on old censorship cards\, was first premiered at the Berlinale in February 2018.From the Film-Kurier No. 244\, October 30\, 1923: “Dupont succeeds in making the atmosphere of the very different worlds of this film visible: the ghetto milieu\, separated by an almost insurmountable wall from the world outside\, and this world itself\, vividly brought to life through 1860s Vienna\, which is carried by the rhythms of Johann Strauss’ waltzes\, where the Burgtheater represents the epitome of all art.” \nMusical:\nThe music is a new composition that draws on the cine-historical approaches of silent film music from the 1920s. It combines new sound colors of organ and percussion with old Chassidic and Yiddish chants. This is reflected formally through the use of the ethereal glass harp\, as well as in the actual musical score\, which presents a contemporary composer’s approach without attempting to replicate old models. This results in an exciting balance of “old images” and “new sounds\,” which do not simply run contrapuntally alongside or against the film\, but instead create a dramaturgically coherent interplay\, thus giving special weight to the highly emotional subject matter. \nThe instrumentation reflects the extraordinary nature of the theme: concert organ\, Jewish cantor (tenor)\, and large percussion ensemble\, including the rarely heard glass harp. \nMore Information about: “The ancient Law“

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "GREED"
DESCRIPTION:Sa. 28.03.26  8 pm\nRochuskirche\nCologne\, Rochusstr. 100\nGeneral Info\nGeneral:\nUSA 1924  \nDirected by: Erich von Stroheim \nLength: approx. 140 min. \nScreenplay: June Mathis and E.v. Stroheim based on the novel McTeague by Frank Norris \nCast: Zasu Pitts – Trina; Gibson Gowland – McTeague; Jean Hersholt – Marcus; and others. \nContributors: Wilfried Kaets – Piano; Jona Kaets – Page Turner \nAbout the Film:\nGreed is a silent film classic from 1924 directed by Erich von Stroheim\, exploring the theme of human greed. It tells the story of a woman whose obsession with money after winning the lottery destroys her marriage and causes her to lose her social circle. \nPlot:\nMcTeague\, a simple man\, works in a mine. He meets Trina\, the fiancée of his friend Marcus\, falls in love\, and marries her. When Trina wins a large sum of money in the lottery\, Marcus is overtaken by intense jealousy and believes he is entitled to part of the money… \nMusic Version:\nThe music version for Greed is quite special: this time it is not newly composed but performed using the original historical piano scores by film composer Leo A. Kempinski from 1924. These scores were discovered years ago\, almost by accident\, at a flea market in New York and made their way to Wilfried Kaets… Kaets spent months of detailed work practicing 158 pages of handwritten sheet music and will perform them live on the piano. \nThe adaptation process was complex due to the differences in the available sheet music compared to the film’s current condition. In many places\, cuts or jumps had to be made\, some of which had been altered by the original pianist who performed live during film screenings in 1924 due to film breaks. \nMore Informations about: “Greed“

SUMMARY:Silent Film Concert "Destiny" ( Organ and piano simultaneously)
DESCRIPTION:Sa. 19.12.26\nBlack Box\nSchulstr. 4 \nInfo\nGeneral:Germany 1921Director: Fritz LangScreenplay: Fritz Lang\, Thea von HarbouDuration: 93 min. \nAbout:This film\, resembling a novella in style\, is filled with romantic mood and resignation. Death\, weary of its duty\, longs to be “defeated” by a young girl. Equally impressive is the main storyline: scenes set in a romantically winding German town with its sometimes quirky characters\, and scenes in the majestically dark Hall of the Life Lights. \nMusic Version:New music score by Wilfried Kaets for organ and percussion \nPerformers:Wilfried Kaets – OrganNorbert Krämer – PercussionJoachim Steinigeweg – Silent film technology \nInformation:A valuable historic silent film copy with hand-calligraphed intertitles will be presented at reduced original speed on a large screen. \nMore Information about: Destiny
