Classic Rock Music Is Getting Paired Up With Classic Silent Films This Fall

The Big Picture This fall, moviegoers are going to have a whole new way to watch - and listen to - classic silent movies. Silents Synced is a new series that will pair classic albums with silent movies - and they'll screen in theaters across the country. Deadline reports that their first offering is a pairing of two Radiohead albums with F.W. Murnau's 1922 German Expressionist horror film Nosferatu.

What Music Plays During Silent Movies? Close Before the advent of sound in film, movies were played accompanied by live music, often by an organist. Many of the scores originally composed for silent films have been lost over the intervening years, and so prints of silent films are often accompanied by public-domain soundtracks — for horror films, that usually means Johann Sebastian Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor".
