To be in Dialogue with the Film: With Neil Brand and Lillian Henley at the Master Classes at Pordenone Silent Film Festival
Chapter
Abstract
The silent film festival in the little Italian north-eastern town Pordenone, only a few miles from Venice, was founded in 1982 and is regarded as the world’s most prominent festival on silent film. For thirty years the week-long festival has attracted scholars, filmmakers, archive staff, musicians and film institute directors to watch, discuss and listen to silent films during an autumn week. Music has to an ever increasing extent gained interest from the visitors, and today the festival presents screenings with very varied kinds of accompaniment, not least through its master classes.
