Bluesferatu 2.0

Nosferatu – Eine Symphonie des Grauens” by F. W. Murnau (1922), is one of the most important silent films.

The original music has been lost, so countless scores have been made for it, and it’s a live favorite at film festivals and beyond. But no blues was ever played on it. A more psychedelic blues, but what a blues, Bluesferatu!!!

The original music is composed and performed live by musicians from Brasov, Robert Watzatka „Watzzy” – guitar, Ionuț Constantin „Yokko”, Costi Popescu – drums, Ilyes Botond „Boti” – guitar, Mihai Nedea – keyboards, Ovidiu Mihai – bass, namely: The Bluesferatu project!

Last year we presented it on September 28th in the world premiere in Brașov, as part of the Transilvania Blues Festival – and in preview at the Apollonia Cultural Banc and at Hub 2068. Now it will be projected on a screen in the courtyard of Bran Castle (exterior), the more suitable space for Bluesferatu & Co to let loose – outdoors, in the moonlight. The musicians will perform live in front of the screen for the entire duration of the film – 95 minutes!

A concert – event: Bluesferatu 2.0. or Bluesferatu Comes to Bran.

Tickets: 100 RON in the pre-sale and 120 RON in the evening of the concert.

A project produced by Alin Ludu Dumbravă and Vlad Popescu for the Arts & Events Association.
