Monologue from "On Golden Pond".
From untitled movie project.
A live performance of my song "Gimme the Love (Something Real)" at the Laurie Beechman Theatre in NYC. Listen to the studio recording on Soundcloud!
This is a 19-minute silent film from 1924, with a score I wrote that won a film scoring contest sponsored by the University of Wyoming. It stars Stan Laurel, who would later become half of the famous Laurel and Hardy duo.
My prize for winning the contest was airfare and accommodations to Laramie, Wyoming, to watch as they screened the movie at a film festival while 5 musicians performed the score live as the film played. It was fantastic! Unfortunately, a professional recording was not possible, so the score is rendered here with synthesized instruments. I scored it for clarinet, violin, percussion, contrabass, and out-of-tune piano. :-)
