Come and take part in a live movie soundtrack with these workshops at the ICA

LIVE SOUNDTRACK WORKSHOP 4-6 pm
Have you ever performed live for a silent film? Big Bang Lab's energetic musicians will be leading two workshops on September 28 to produce new musical pieces.

Bring your acoustic instrument or your voice to create and perform together live original compositions for silent films. We will create a new instrumental piece for Unseen Voices, a film originally created by young students using archive footage from 1940s newsreels of London.

LIVE PERFORMANCE 6.30-8.30 pm
We invite you to participate in a live musical chat show in a relaxed environment introducing you to the world of new music for silent films in conjunction with the outstanding Delta Saxophone Quartet which will performing for the film L'invitation au voyage by Germain Dulac and early Tom & Jerry 1930s cartoons.

We will be screening the iconic 'Un Chien Andalou' with a new recorded award winning score by Sergio López Figueroa produced for the Dalí Exhibition at Tate Modern. The finale will be joining forces for a hilarious balloon orchestra performance for a comedy film fantasy made in 1904!

This is a free event. You need to book separately to attend the workshop or the performance by email on a first come first served basis. Limited number of seats available. Performance booking open to people 18 years old or over due to the references in the film Un Chien Andalou (1929)
