Chaplin in concert: With a Smile
Belgian National Orchestra conducted by Dirk Brossé - Bozar, Henry Le Boeuf Hall


Program Info:
Chaplin is clearly much more than a tunesmith and filmmaker: his entire cinematic concept is rooted in a deep understanding of rhythm and emotion. His iconic appearance is perhaps the most poignant symbol of the average man struggling with love, hunger, poverty, fascism and capitalism. The resilience of the Little Tramp, his victories and defeats are choreographed with the precision of a ballet. Nevertheless, Chaplin - With A Smile is neither a historical nor a biographical “concert documentary”. Rather, it is about the wondrous interplay of the many facets of a genius: the actor, the filmmaker, the humanist, the clown, the dancer, the art rebel, the egomaniac, the musician.


With a live screening of excerpts from the films: The Immigrant, The Circus, A Dog’s Life, The Gold Rush, Pay Day, The Idle Class, City Lights, Modern Times, The Great Dictator, The Count and The Cure
With works by Charles Chaplin, Johannes Brahms, Richard Wagner & Léo Daniderff.
