Description

Pittsburgh pianist and silent film composer Tom Roberts returns to WQED’s Voice of the Arts podcast!

Among many musical projects, Roberts is known for composing original live scores to some of Charlie Chaplin’s earliest films, which he will perform at his upcoming concert called “Chaplin by Candlelight," presenting his work from films including The Rink, The Pawn Shop, Kid Auto Races at Venice, and One A.M. Roberts talks with Giovanni Mori about the performance, as well as the process of creating his scores to capture Chaplin’s vision.

The performance will take place at Calvary United Methodist Church on Sunday, February 15th, from 5:00-7:00pm. Tickets can be purchased at the door, or through Roberts’ official website at tomrobertspiano.com.
