About this concert
Metropolis is the city of the future: a world of gleaming skyscrapers and diabolical machines, where the rich live in unimagined splendour and the poor feed the furnaces that drive this art deco dystopia. But the foundations of Metropolis are starting to shake. A revolutionary, a tyrant, a mad inventor and a robot goddess find their fates intertwined in Fritz Lang鈥檚 epic movie 鈥� a masterpiece of the silent era, whose stunning visuals are as breathtaking today as they were when Metropolis premiered in January 1927. As it turns 100, we鈥檙e screening the film complete with Gottfried Huppertz鈥檚 full, sumptuous original score, performed live by the 麻豆社 Scottish Symphony Orchestra and conductor Ben Palmer. Expect sights 鈥� and sounds 鈥� like you鈥檝e never experienced.
