RED HEROINE with the Devil Music Ensemble

On Wednesday, September 17th, the Devil Music Ensemble will preform their original live score to the silent martial arts film RED HEROINE (1929, directed by Wen Yimin). It is the only surviving episode of a 13-part series and is one of the earliest examples of silent "Kung Fu" films. The screening of the film will be a once in a lifetime experience. DME is a trio of multi talented musicians from Boston comprised of Brendon Wood, Jonah Rapino, and Tim Nylander. The group is known for its work on silent film composition. They bring to life old films with modern day music (as well as composing for more recent films). The 2008 RED HEROINE tour (sponsored by the Boston Asian Community Development Corporation) is only one of their many tours. They have ventured across the US on 6 different tours and 2 across Europe. Now they are bringing audiences the thrilling story of the woman warrior Yun Mei avenging her grandmothers death. So come out and see this unique show and enjoy some live music
