  Episode 23 - Conducting for Silent Films with Kim Souther

  Sep 29, 202653 min

  In honor of Silent Movie Day, we're talking with Kim Souther, professor of music and director of orchestras at Clemson University, all about conducting silent film scores live. From sight-reading through the endurance test of performance runs, she takes us through the process of coordinating, rehearsing and inspiring student musicians. Souther and the Clemson University Orchestra performed Robert Israel's score of "The Freshman" this past spring and will be touring Europe this coming year performing with Harold Lloyd films, culminating with a performance of Robert Israel's new score for "Safety Last!" After studying film conducting with Angel Velez at Warner Bros., she discovered her passion for silent movie accompaniment and for introducing students and young musicians to the magic of playing music to picture for an audience. And she shares how the films of Harold Lloyd opened a new creative field for her. Souther's passion for music education and silent comedy is contagious, as well as her philosophy of following the creative curiosity that has shaped her own career. Plus, hear the Clemson University Orchestra performing "The Freshman" for a packed audience in February.

  Episode 20 - For Heaven's Sake 100 with Annette D'Agostino Lloyd - part one

  Aug 14, 202659 min

  Harold Lloyd biographer Annette D'Agostino Lloyd is helping us celebrate the 100th birthday of "For Heaven's Sake"! (released April 6, 1926) In the fall of 1925, "The Freshman" is breaking records for Lloyd at the box office while Harold his writers are prepping their first film for Paramount, a concept which takes a surprising evolution into a future classic. When the have to jettison the project, they're left wondering what kind of story to tell. The evolution of that story and its echoes in a lifelong dedication which begins for Lloyd in 1926. As the regular crew and cast assemble, Jobyna Ralston elevates the film in a rich role as "Hope," and Noah Young delivers a star turn as antagonist-turned-sidekick "Bull." The difference between two-camera and multi-take shooting for the international releases. How Harold shot differently from Roach and others, and the differences in the final versions. Plus: Constantine Romanoff, Arthur Houseman, and Foster Brooks.
