The
long-awaited annual winter film series returns to the World Financial
Center featuring classic silent films set to innovative and energetic
scores by Gary
Lucas, the BQE Ensemble, and The Cinematic Orchestra.

Each
night, starting at 7PM, experience a different film and its inventive new music
score.

On
Tuesday night, Feb. 10, Gary Lucas performs ghostly improvisational solo guitar
for three surrealist films: "Entr’acte", "Ballet
Mecanique", and "The Cameraman’s Revenge."

Wednesday
evening, Feb. 11, the BQE Project’s palette of exotic instruments from
Middle Eastern drums to mandolin accompanies “The Golem.”

And on
Thursday night, Feb. 12, the Cinematic Orchestra’s moody,
electronica-tinged jazz-funk follows "Man with a Movie Camera." And
it's all FREE!

All performances will be taped for later
broadcast on New Sounds, airs 11pm-midnight every night on WNYC 93.9 FM (these
will probably air March or April).
