Film Screening
Nosferatu Screening with Live Orchestra
Know before you go
In-person event, Morse Auditorium
$30 members; $40 nonmembers
Experience the 1922 silent film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror with a live performance of the score for theater orchestra. In the 1920s, silent films weren’t silent: They were accompanied by a live piano player, organist or full orchestra. Arpeggione Ensemble will be performing on historical instruments from the early 20th century, including harmonium, flute, clarinet and strings.
From the eerily corpse-like appearance of Max Schreck as Count Orlok to climactic shot of a shadow on a staircase, Nosferatu set the standard for modern horror movies and created the vampire movie as we know it. As the earliest film adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Nosferatu is the source of several of the most enduring aspects of modern-day vampire lore.
Fans of horror, music enthusiasts, vintage aficionados… enter if you dare to see and hear Nosferatu as it would have sounded when it was first screened!
