Experience a classic horror masterpiece like never before as the Babylon Orchester Berlin performs a live orchestral accompaniment to F.W. Murnau's legendary 1922 silent film "Nosferatu." The performance features the original score by Hans Erdmann, newly arranged by Hans Brandner in 2018, with German intertitles and English subtitles. This atmospheric presentation brings the tale of Count Orlok's sinister voyage from Transylvania to the German port city of Wisborg to haunting life, as the young protagonist Hutter becomes entangled in a supernatural nightmare that threatens his homeland.
The film explores vampirism as a metaphor for death's war against the living, culminating in a tragic sacrifice that alone can break the curse. Often regarded as the mother of all vampire films, this work survived despite a court order for its destruction due to copyright infringement claims related to Bram Stoker's "Dracula." This unique live event combines orchestral music with cinema to create an immersive journey into one of horror's most influential and visually stunning creations.
