Composer/pianist Robert Bruce performs his live original piano scores in 3 classic 1920s silent film programs.
Among the ever-increasing number of musicians who currently perform live to classic silent films, Bruce is particularly noted for the quality of his presentations and the strength of his original music. He limits himself to working with films/programs (presently 9) he feels a strong artistic connection to, and that work “seamlessly” with his music.
