Ghost Almanac: An Evening of Silent Cinema Classics with Live Music performed by Montopolis – One Night Only!

Ghost Almanac features the best scenes from classic horror films soundtracked live by the vintage synthesizer enthusiasts of Montopolis. Think Tales from the Crypt meets VH1 in this 80-minute, roller coaster ride of terror and old school beats.

Montopolis is an indie chamber music group from Austin, Texas, that performs the works of composer Justin Sherburn. Their genre-busting music uses inventive instrumentation to create “stunning and transcendent” (Austin Chronicle) concerts. Their programs are audience-engaging, multi-media events that combine live music with film and interactive storytelling. The Montopolis musicians include members of the Austin Symphony, Okkervil River, Tosca String Quartet and the Polyphonic Spree.
