The Passion Of Joan Of Arc
Hauser & Wirth Somerset, in collaboration with British Paraorchestra conductor Charles Hazlewood, Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Will Gregory (Goldfrapp), presents a special live orchestral performance and film screening in the magnificent medieval setting of Wells Cathedral.
Adrian Utley and Will Gregory have devised a new score sound-tracking the dramatic and moving narrative of Danish film director Carl Theodor Dreyer’s ‘The Passion of Joan of Arc’ (1928), which chronicles Joan of Arc’s trial and execution during her captivity in France.
The re-invented score will be performed live alongside a screening of the film, led by Charles Hazlewood with members of the Monteverdi Choir, percussion, horns, harp and synthesizers.
