We don’t know more info yet, but Colmenarejo’s Cultural Center together with the Town Music School is organizing this workshop for the spring of 2021, since we couldn’t do it in the spring of 2020 within my IX MONO+GRAPHIC.
Improvisación
ALICANTE: ‘Diferente a los demás’ with impro at the piano
….One of my favorite things to do in life is improvising with the piano on silent movies. Use them as a video-score for my creations. I have been doing it since 2003, at the Strade del Cinema festival (Italian Alps), for more than 20 years now, and I have often done it at the International Institute of Madrid, working on pieces from the United States.
….In this case, the Vice-rectorate for Equality, Inclusion and Social Responsibility together with the Film and Audiovisual Department of the University of Alicante, under the coordination of Israel Gil, created a LGTBIQ+ Film Festival to celebrate Pride this coming July. In it, I will play three nights: Thursday 4, Tuesday 16 and Tuesday 23.
….All sessions will be at 7:30 close to the sea, so what could be better to do after beach other than coming to the cinema?
….On Thursday, July 4, we’ll watch Different from the Rest, a German gem from 1919 that happens to be the first gay-themed film in the history of cinema. It has thought-provoking content that still feels modern today.c
