Classics, the Jazz Age, and the Silent Film: An Early 20th Century Sampler - Pianist Jeffrey LaDeur

Celebrating the Baker Community Center’s centennial, pianist Jeffrey LaDeur brings a wide-ranging program that concludes with a screening of the 1920 Buster Keaton silent comedy film, One Week, for which LaDeur will perform an original score by the contemporary composer Stephen Prutsman. Written in the style of silent film music of a bygone era, Prutsman’s piano score playfully accompanies the action as Keaton hilariously attempts to build a house for himself and his new bride.
