We are listening to the Jack Curtis Dubowsky Ensemble album Themes, a collection of unique scores for classic silent films.
This release brings together music composed for iconic silent cinema, including …Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, The Golem, The Lodger, and The Kid. We explore how the ensemble balances these compositions with structured improvisation, creating a live score experience that feels both composed and spontaneous. It is a fascinating look at how modern musicians interpret and breathe new life into century-old narratives.
