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 "Earth Spirit" (Organ and piano simultaneously)
DESCRIPTION:25.04.26\nBlack Box im Filmmuseum Düsseldorf\nSchulstr. 4 \nInfo\n\nGermany 1923\nDirector: Leopold Jessner\nDuration: approx. 85 min\nScreenplay: Carl Mayer (based on the tragedy of the same name by Frank Wedekind\, 1895)\nCinematography: Axel Graatkjaer \nShort and Sweet\nThe life of the young and free-spirited Lulu is marked by numerous relationships with men who\, sooner or later\, all fall under her spell.\nAt first\, she is the companion of the much older and wealthy journalist Dr. Schön\, who once rescued her from the clutches of a certain Schigolch and took her off the streets. \nAbout the music\nThe musical version was created in remembrance of the film-music dramaturgy of the silent film era. It draws on structural concepts from that time (organizing scenes\, defining characters\, etc.) but is a new composition\, thus creating a bond between “old images and new sounds.” \n\nMore Information about: Earth Spirit

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
