Silent Film Accompaniment Workshop

  • Senate Theater 6424 Michigan Avenue Detroit, MI, 48210 United States (map)

ALL MUSICIANS WELCOME!

Are you a musician interested in the art of silent film accompaniment? Do you want to help preserve the history and heritage of silent film? Don’t miss your chance to get up close and personal with our Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ and learn the basics of the form.

Long-time organist John Lauter will lead the workshop, bringing with him his own extensive experience and imparting the knowledge passed down to him by his teachers, some of the very organists who accompanied silent films in the 1920s.
