The Valerie Project
Twisted Nerve
INDIE
Philadelphia musicians bring new life to a forgotten classic of the Czech New Wave: JAROMIL JIRES’s ‘Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders’. The sound goes off & the amps get cranked (do harps need amps?) as a collective of Philadelphia’s finest underground musicians pay tribute to this seminal film of the new folk movement.
The first chapter of THE PROJECT SERIES, it all started with a simple concept; that of recontextualising the filmic meaning & impact of a particular work through the substitution of a newly composed soundtrack. Key to the concept is how reframing the film’s action with an alternate soundtrack draws new interpretations from a work of intricate depth & changeable meaning. Foremost in the musicians’ minds, however, is paying tribute to a timeless fantasy film of increasing relevance. The tone is lush, orchestral & acid-charged.
