About This Event
At Berlin, The Flushing Remonstrance perform their own live score to Nosferatu while screening the film. The duo of Catherine Cramer (percussion) and Robert Kennedy (keyboards, electronics, voice) composes and performs original scores to films and presents those scores in tandem with the projected image.
About Nosferatu(film_score)
J.-H. Janßen
*Nosferatu* is a film_score response to F. W. Murnau’s 1922 silent vampire film, in which Count Orlok’s arrival shadows a household and turns infection into a civic crisis. This live dance event, currently playing at Berlin, features The Flushing Remonstrance, treating the screen’s dread as movement and rhythm rather than dialogue. The film has long circulated in New York’s repertory and museum contexts as a cornerstone of Expressionist cinema and early horror’s visual grammar. One clear effect remains: it makes contagion feel architectural, built into streets and rooms.
