Submitted by the Event Organizer
Join us for a special free concert celebrating the debut of Byer Square, the new community hub at the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living, bringing together culture, connection, and longevity to inspire how we live and age. In a multimedia narrative performance, New York City’s Gabriel Schillinger-Hyman Quartet explores jazz music that originated in film, revealing how movies helped carry jazz into the collective imagination. The program spans a wide range of film styles and eras, including silent films, early talkies, animation, noir, gothic horror and supernatural films, romance, musicals, Hollywood classics, independent and arthouse cinema, and avant-garde works. Special emphasis is placed on the contributions of Jewish composers, whose influence on 20th-century film and popular music is profound and lasting.
