HUGE TURNOUT FOR BETWEEN THE FOLDS IN ST LOUIS
Wow! That was the first word that came to my mind as people kept flowing into the St. Louis History Museum for the screening of BETWEEN THE FOLDS last evening. This was Community Cinema at its finest. Approximately 340 people showed up for the viewing of the film and I was amazed watching the diversity of people fill the auditorium and overflow onto the steps and the sides of the theater. People of all ages laughed and clapped at various parts of the film, signaling they understood what the artists were trying to communicate to them.

After much anticipation, Gil Talmi’s remarkable original score for Between the Folds is now available on iTunes and Amazon.
Gil’s lush and perfectly-paired soundtrack for the film features chamber music recorded by the Budapest Symphony Orchestra. It was 4 years of collaboration, brainstorming and hard work in the making!
You can learn more and hear more of Gil’s work at his website, Thoughts in Grey Circles.
At the Roxie October 17 & 19
