Rex Ingram's Scaramouche, an epic tale of love and revenge wrapped by the fervor of the French Revolution, premiered 101 years ago. One year ago, Anchorage Festival of Music celebrated Scaramouche's centennial with a showing at the Bear Tooth Theatrepub with the musical score performed by live baroque ensemble. You can now enjoy the movie with the live audio (which includes audience reactions). The score is recreated from the original cue sheets and draws heavily from French music of the 18th century.

The Dragons and Dungeons concert (Sept 14 and 15) features a song about "ancient prisons" by Maria Teresa Agnesi. A contemporary review describes this work as "perfectly expressing the natural meaning of the words. Everything is new... and cannot but be appreciated by lovers of music."
