As the RNCM continues to research interesting programming ideas for our French Connections season, we thought why not curate our own original evening of 1920s Surrealist short films complete with brand new live scores composed and performed by our students?

Our programme will include Luis Buuels Un chien andalou (co-written by Salvador Dal), Man Rays Emak-Bakia, Ren Clairs Entracte and Hans Richters Vormittagsspuk (Ghosts Before Breakfast). Some of the shorts featured may not be that well-known but were extremely innovative for the time they were made and will be a very interesting watch.
