Magnificent Movements of Image and Sound
by alumni1989 on 1/20/16Valley Performing Arts Center - NorthridgeI thought the idea was great: a silent movie with a theme of voices having a living soundtrack of songs pertaining to the original story. YES - It absolutely worked!!! The blending of The Orlando Consort Voices with the black & white images was magnificent....aside from the incredible cinematography. The film's photography (image composition) and lighting are artfully impressive. I did not know anything about the movie or the theme before going and was enthralled on the director's selection focus and camera angels. My ONLY lament .....WHY was there more public in the theater to enjoy this jewel ??? I do hope it repeats and will spread the word !!
