David Bailey accompanies the 1924 ‘Peter Pan’ silent movie on the theatre organ
November 3 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
David Bailey has built a strong reputation as an organist with a particular skill in accompanying silent movies. His program will include a screening of the 1924 film ‘Peter Pan’ in its centenary year since release. David has presented this program interstate to rave reviews and it will now be Adelaide’s turn to enjoy this experience.
David Bailey is an Australian theatre organist, composer and silent film accompanist based in Brisbane with a musical style influenced heavily by the popular music of the early to mid-twentieth century. A theatre organist firstly, David’s main form of musical expression has always been connected to the silent film world, but in 2007 he brought this expertise back to the cinema and pursued an interest in silent film accompaniment. Since then, he has composed and performed scores for films from all over the world and every genre including many screenings for the Australian Cinematheque at GOMA. David strives to creatively reveal the huge musical resources of the theatre organ to modern audiences and offer a cinema experience that is simultaneously novel and nostalgic.
