Chorus Niagara’s new take on silent film

On Nov. 5, and 6, Niagara choral group Chorus Niagara, will
kick off their 48th performance season by presenting a unique twist
on the silent film. They will be screening the 1923 silent film,
The Hunchback of Notre Dame at the St. Thomas’ Anglican Church, and
will be performing a live choral “soundtrack” to accompany the
film.

This “soundtracking” of a silent film is not something new or
unknown. I’m pretty sure that half the student population have
attempted to sync up the Wizard of Oz and Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of
the Moon at least once in their lifetimes. What makes Chorus
Niagara’s interpretation notable is the fact that they are a large
choral group, performing along side the film.
