Silent Film! Magic Lantern Slides! A multimedia extravaganza blending three spectacular
new compositions & films with enduring favorites to take you on an enchanted journey!
Philip Wharton created a magical score for the 1902 hand-painted color French film The
Fairy of Springtime. Michael Kimber scored Venetian Tragedy, a nine-minute drama with a
surprise ending. French composers Jean-Francois Charles and Nicolas Sidoroff teamed up
to create a major multi-media work which explores the life of the great French filmmaker
Georges Méliès, known by most from the 2011 film Hugo.
Special thanks to Artist Sponsors Juanita Dennert and Don & Irene (Naxera) Hamous.
