A mail by Gen Fujita, Tokyo Tower Museum:
"We are always thinking how to express Manuel Göttsching's music to visitors from across the world, as a memory of future. From April 5, 2008 (Sat), we set 3D duplicate of the cover jacket of Le Berceau de Cristal next to the wax figure of Manuel Göttsching. We believe it deeply impresses visitors and becomes an important part of our museum."
Video samples with Manuel's music to Murnaus's silent movie SCHLOSS VOGELÖD (The Haunted Castle, 1921) are uploaded now !
The film is considered the first criminal film story with a psychological background, staring famous actor and spy Tschechowa. As the original score got lost and a the DVD of the film will be released with Manuel's music we would like to draw your attention to some excerpts of this film & music. Manuel wrote the score originally for the Chamber Orchestra of the State Theater Brunswick (Lower Saxonia) and for electronics, performed by both parties and recoreded during the screening at the filmfest Brunswick on October 1, 2003. Parts of this music have been released on the CD CONCERT FOR MURNAU
