The 'Bloomsbury Beast' Pipe Organ: Silent Film Double Bill

bloms_19

A brilliant 'Bloomsbury Festival' double-bill: the incredible pipe organ of Bloomsbury Baptist Church accompanies two classic silent films.

Tickets available here: https://bloomsburydoublebill.eventbrite.co.uk/

About this event

Saturday 22nd October 2022, 2pm and 7pm

Nicknamed 'The Bloomsbury Beast', the pipe organ of Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church is one of the most impressive and unique pipe organs in London.

This filmic double-bill, part of the Bloomsbury Festival, is an opportunity to hear it as never before: accompanying two classic silent films. Children under 16 will be admitted free of charge.

At 2pm, Donald MacKenzie (Organist, Odeon, Leicester Square) will accompany the Buster Keaton film 'The General' (1926), an hilarious action-adventure-comedy often ranked among the greatest American films ever made.

At 7pm, Aaron Hawthorne (international, multi-award-winning organist) will be bringing his inimitable improvisational accompaniment to the spine-chilling German Expressionist film 'Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror' (1922).

This Silent Film Double Bill is brought to you as part of Bloomsbury Festival 2022.
