"It's insane and insanely cool that, before the advent of recorded sound in cinema and overdubbing, every theater house in the world had a small band-or at least a piano player-live-scoring their silent film screenings. As champions of the form, Clinton Street Theater has hosted a handful of live-scored silent films over the last couple years to enchanting effect."
"For this extra-special performance, French composer Jean-François Alcoléa sets his trio to scoring the short films of their countryman Georges Méliès. You know, the guy obsessed with moons and creepy faces? Between the three of them, Alcoléa's trio plays over 50 instruments to score the short films to dramatic ends. Show offs. (Clinton Street Theater, 2522 SE Clinton, 7 pm, $15, more info, all ages) NOLAN PARKER"
