Silent films with live music
Touted as the "fifth season", the Elbphilharmonie Summer offers space for films with live music. The improviser and sound artist Wolfgang Mitterer has composed music for the expressionist silent film "Phantom" (1922) by Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau. The Franui band, known among others for its artistic versatility, will accompany Paul Czinner's film "Fräulein Else" (1929), based on the novella of the same name by Arthur Schnitzler.
