A Halloween themed event not to be missed! In a dark, neo-gothic church, the audience will see the silent movie “Habeus Corpus”, featuring Laurel and Hardy as hilariously incompetent grave robbers, with live, improvised organ accompaniment just like in the era of silent films. In addition, they will see and hear vampires, witches, zombies and other strange creatures performing music ranging from Bach’s famous D minor Toccata to themes from Star Wars and Phantom of the Opera, complemented by eerie readings and ghostly decorations. Halloween themed treats for everyone following the concert. Costumes encouraged!
Participating organists: Rachel Alflatt, Michael Dirk, Tamar Genossar, Huiyuan Ma, John Mitchell, Darryl Nixon, Edward Norman, Gail Ovington, Angelique Po, and Michael Park
Free admission, donations accepted.
Underground pay parking available off the alley on the opposite side of the church to Nelson.
