WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“Shapiro writes music that gets under a listener’s skin.”
~Clifton Noble, Jr., Springfield, Massachusetts Republican
“The audience was riveted to their seats. The power of the live music with the classic film was hypnotic.”
~Rob Tomaro, Cashbox Canada Magazine.
“It’s a classical movie but a contemporary composition, which gives it a completely different kind of emotional underpinning.”
~Marta Hepler Drahos, Traverse City, Michigan Record-Eagle
“This unique inaugural event pairs the excitement of a classic horror movie with a symphonic score designed especially for this movie. Boris Karloff made Frankenstein world famous, and Michael Shapiro is world-renowned in the music world. What a fabulous partnership and premise for viewer pleasure. Don’t miss it.”
~Roy Blackwood, Columbia Theatre, Hammond, Louisiana.
