Fryeburg Academy Film Series: Sunrise with accompaniment by Brent Arnold


January 18

Fryeburg Academy Film Series: Sunrise with accompaniment by Brent Arnold 

 7:30 PM at the Eastman Peforming Arts Center

Arnold is a cellist and composer with a wildly unorthodox approach to his instrument, using live looping and processing, guitar-like fingerpicking and techniques from Arabic and African music to create his intricate and moving songs. His newest project is an original score for Sunrise, the legendary 1927 silent film by F.W.Murnau. He performs the entire score live, using only the cello and his battery of electronic tools to give an imaginative and haunting new perspective on the little-known cinematic classic.
Tickets: $10-Adults and $5-Seniors and Students
