The Passion of Joan of Arc with live music written and performed by George Sarah featuring electronics, voices, and strings.
The critically acclaimed 1928 silent film by Carl Dreyer is brought to life with a haunting new score performed live which re-imagines the classic film (with a new 2018 restoration) with a modern urgency. Combining electronic music with four voice choir and string quartet, L.A. composer George Sarah has crafted a moving and an unforgettable visual and auditory experience. After being commissioned by Los Angeles Grand Performances to compose a live score for The Passion of Joan of Arc (La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc), Sarah has been performing this piece throughout the U.S.
