Event

This event may be part of the Festival of Popular Music. 22 pianists (other instruments may be considered) will each play background music for a short scene (30 - 90 seconds) from “The Blacksmith”, a 1920s silent film starring Buster Keaton. Two keyboards will be used so performers can alternate easily. Coordination will be done by the co-chairs and a rehearsal will be held shortly before the performance.

Time

Between 1:00 and 4:00 pm. If we are sharing time with the Festival of Popular Music, the recital order and time is TBD.
