Hey all! As always more performances are brewing.The Organ Grinders series is rolling on with a jazzy score by three time winner of the ASCAP Young Jazz Composer Award. For the April 19 performance, local jazz wizard Ezra Weiss brings his team of hardworking musicians to the Hollywood Theatre.
The Organ Grinders silent film series takes you sleuthing around the movie theatre. The case: Buster Keaton’s Sherlock Jr, a 1924 tale of love, rivalry, thieves, and the movies. Also included in this evening’s fare will be the 1921 Buster Keaton short THE GOAT, a classic tale of mistaken identity.
Ezra Weiss has composed and/or arranged music for, among many others, Billy Hart, Leon Lee Dorsey, and Rob Scheps. He has composed music and lyrics to two children’s musicals and his effortless approach to jazz has garnered him the ASCAP Young Jazz Composer Award three times.
In a special one-time performance, the Hollywood Theatre is transformed back to its vaudeville days of bowler hat bedecked musicians and big screen spectacles.
