Lass,Abraham Play Me A Movie: Piano Music To Accompany Silent CD

How does a storm at sea sound? A villain's entrance? Tender, sentimental love? The silent-movie pianists at neighborhood theaters matched music to the action on the screen-sometimes without even having previewed the film. Abraham Lass fondly remembers and performs the repertoire he composed in the 1920s.
