Stephan Graf v. Bothmer: NOSFERATU

StummfilmKonzert

Bothmer's composition is the most successful film music for NOSFERATU since the silent film era. It is gripping and extremely suggestive: archetypes come to life and the audience seems to be sucked into the film. They experience the film as if from the inside out!

A journey into the unconscious, the land of hidden fears and desires.

"Nosferatu" is the first and most charismatic Dracula film adaptation in film history. The well-known story of the young man who set out to sell a house and ends up in a nightmare. The film is probably one of the most artistically valuable German film productions of all time.

The poetic imagery, nature shots that have never been used before and the sensational portrayal of Max Schreck, together with von Bothmer's music, ensure an almost mystical experience. [F.W. Murnau, D 1922]

Stephan Graf v. Bothmer sets "Nosferatu - a symphony of horror" to music in a scary and movingly beautiful way. He gives the film a depth that seemed unattainable. His music has been performed over 300 times worldwide. The most successful film music for NOSFERATU since the silent film era was performed outdoors, at night, at the director's grave in the Südwestkirchhof Stahnsdorf in front of over 800 guests.

With his spectacular silent film concerts, Stephan Graf v. Bothmer fills theaters and concert halls on five continents. He has performed at the Schleswig-Holstein Festival and in the Laeiszhalle Hamburg, as well as in Berlin in the Admiralspalast, the Wintergarten Varieté and the Berlin Cathedral, as well as at the Rock-Pop Festival at Tempelhof Airport after Björk, Blur and the Pet Shop Boys.

Bothmer's compositions are characterized by an irrepressible joy of playing and virtuosity that combines echoes of Chopin, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd and electronic music in a unique way.
