Vox Lumiere-The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Phillylist.com
When Phillyist heard about Vox Lumiere The Hunchback of Notre Dame, we thought it sounded way cool. The 1923 silent film, projected above a stage, with live musicians and singers and dancers performing along with it. How friggin’ cool is that? Old and new, sound and silence – we loved the idea. We couldn’t wait to go.
And we have to admit, it was really cool!
The Creator/Composer/Conductor Kevin Saunders Hayes is a wildly accomplished composer who is clearly at home in a wide range of musical styles, and his expansion of The Hunchback of Notre Dame did make us see the film anew!
