Alloy Orchestra is a three man musical ensemble, writing and performing live accompaniment to classic silent films. Working with an assemblage of peculiar objects, they thrash and grind soulful music from unlikely sources. Using a combination of found percussion and state-of-the-art electronics gives the Orchestra the ability to create any sound imaginable. They can conjure up a French symphony or a simple German bar band of the 20′s. They will present an original score to "The Black Pirate", directed by Albert Parker, written by and starring Douglas Fairbanks.
