A collection of five pieces for orchestra by French composer, Gaston Borch (1871-1926) written to accompany creepy, suspenseful, mysterious, and supernatural scenes for silent films. A prolific composer, cellist, conductor, and arranger, Borch moved to the United States in the early 1900s where he significantly contributed to the American musical landscape. He became particularly known for his work in the burgeoning field of silent film music, composing scores that enhanced the emotional impact of films. Borch's music was characterized by its melodic richness and dramatic expressiveness, which made it ideal for the cinema. His ability to craft music that perfectly matched the narrative and emotional arcs of films made him a sought-after composer in the industry. The entire collection - or any number of the individual selections - would make an ideal addition to any Halloween-themed program. Score and parts.
