An ambitious educational project in which films by Georges Méliès are set to music and performed by students from Ecole Koenig in Paris.

 

For many of these students it was their first encounter with musical improvisation. The films of Georges Méliès readily lend themselves to this "musical game". The young musicians  read the image, as if it were a musical score.

 

Directed and developed by Laurent Grynszpan and Betsy Schlesinger, this project is the result of several months work presented during the Weekend du Clavier Contemporain at the Chopin Conservatory in Paris, January 29, 2017.
