New Live-Music for silent movies of Karl Valentin
Leopold Hurt / composition, zither and electronics
The German comedien and avantgard artist Karl Valentin was one of the pioneers of art-house film in the early twenties of the 20th century. Amongst others he collaborated with Bertolt Brecht und Max Ophüls.
The zither, which is here used for a new live-soundtrack, was his most favourite instrument.
