The SDSO presents The New Babylon, a classic 1929 Soviet silent film, magnificently pairing propaganda with art with Dmitri Shostakovich's score performed live, just like the Russians would have experienced during this time. Including a history on the Paris Commune in which the film is based, and other musical excerpts, as part of The New Babylon Series. More details below.
