The cine-concerts at the Palazzetto Bru Zane celebrate the accompaniment of film with live music, taking up the tradition of showing silent movies with performances alongside the screen in the cinema. The chosen instrument here is that most commonly used on such occasions between 1895 and 1927: the piano.

Existing repertoires were often played in those years, with original music being only very rarely composed. The cine-concerts thus take their cue from this historical circumstance and accompany the screenings with the music of French Romanticism, evoking not only a fascinating musical practice, but also the atmosphere of Belle Époque Paris, where cinema was born.

The events also include historical introductions, to offer a context and make the experience even more engaging.
