The Chaplin Project

Friday, September 20, 2013, 7:00-9:00 p.m. Join Pittsburgh pianist, arranger and composer Tom Roberts as he performs two new scores for the Charlie Chaplin masterpieces: One A.M. and The Rink.  For his scores, Roberts uses musical styles and genres that would have been appropriate for 1916.  In addition to ragtime, foxtrots, tangos and waltzes, he utilizes more exotic elements such as the French “Vals Musette” and Brazilian “Choros,” both styles that would have perhaps been performed with these scores in their respective countries. Sweetwater Center for the ArtsMembers: $10 advance/$12 day of eventNon-members: $15 advance/$18 day of event
