Bill Frisell Scores Buster Keaton
Old-timey piano music isn’t the only way to watch the silent films of Buster Keaton. A new DVD features three Keaton classics with gorgeous and strange music by acclaimed jazz guitarist Bill Frisell. Frisell tells Studio 360’s David Krasnow about his awe for Keaton and his attempt to capture the emotion of each scene.
