The Concord COA is pleased to announce that Richard Hughes is returning to the COA with silent films set to his live piano playing. On Monday, July 18th at 1:00 PM, Richard will present a montage of music set to the Harold Lloyd silent film from 1926, For Heaven’s Sake. Richard will give background about the film, then entertain you with a montage of live piano music from the time. On August 11th, Richard will present a “Silent Movie Educational Program”. He creates a living history through fascinating silent movie clips of newsreels, melodramas, cartoons, comedies and more. Attendees will have an opportunity to synchronize sound effects like a train whistle, siren, and wind machine to a popular melodrama of 1913. These presentations are funded through the proceeds of Harvey’s Treasure Chest Gift Shop and are free of charge. Please call the COA office to reserve your spot: 978-318-3020.
