Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra to screen ‘Phantom of the Opera’ with live music
The Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra will present two screenings of the 1925 silent classic The Phantom of the Opera with live orchestral and pipe organ accompaniment at Plymouth Church on October 24.
The Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra is hosting a special Halloween-themed event at Plymouth Church in Brooklyn Heights on Saturday, Oct. 24. Two screenings of the 1925 silent horror film The Phantom of the Opera are scheduled for 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., featuring a live score arranged by Rodney Sauer and performed by the orchestra under the direction of Maestro Phil Nuzzo.
The performance will utilize the church’s historic 4,162-pipe Aeolian-Skinner organ to enhance the haunting atmosphere of the film, which stars Lon Chaney Sr. The score is derived from a historic collection of silent film music held at the American Music Research Center. Tickets for the event at 57 Orange St. are $40, and attendees are encouraged to wear Halloween costumes.
