Program

Among the most influential composers ever to work in film, Philip Glass has reinvented the relationship between music and the moving image. For Dracula, Glass created an intense and atmospheric score for the Kronos Quartet, bringing new life to Universal Pictures’ 1931 classic by Tod Browning. Here they appear together alongside horror film icon Bela Lugosi in a riveting synthesis of music concert and film.
