<p>Ben and Kerr talk about Ben&#8217;s shows at MoMA&#8217;s &#8220;Silent Movie Week&#8221; of &#8220;Saxophon Susi&#8221; and &#8220;Berlin: Symphony of a Great City&#8221;, and at the Rubinstein Atrium at Lincoln Center for an early Louise Brooks Paramount feature. Ben discusses adjusting his approach to laying down a recorded score when scoring &#8220;Poisoned Paradise&#8221; (1924) with Clara Bow for the National Film Preservation Foundation, and for Keystone shorts for the &#8220;Rediscovering Roscoe&#8221; Blu-ray set due out in 2026. Ben and Kerr discuss their both noticing a growing and a younger audience for silent film in recent years, with Ben observing this at Capitolfest this past August. Performance excerpts include &#8220;Saxophon Susi&#8221; (piano, at MoMA), &#8220;Love &#8217;em and Leave &#8217;em&#8221; (1924) (piano, at the Atrium), and &#8220;Finders Keepers&#8221;(1928) starrring Laura LaPlante (theatre organ, at Capitolfest). The latter is also included as an example of a live score being affected by the film&#8217;s introduction, in this case by historian/author Laura Jerrolds.</p> <p>Show notes for episode 70 can be found <strong><a href="https://silentfilmmusic.com/episode70-show-notes/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a></strong>.</p> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-text-color has-secondary-color has-css-opacity has-secondary-background-color has-background is-style-wide"/>
