Diary of a Lost Girl to screen in UK with Raga pianist

The once controversial and still sensational Louise Brooks film, The Diary of a Lost Girl, will be screened in the UK on June 11, 2024 at the National Centre for Early Music in Tork, England. This screening will feature a live musical accompaniment by New York based Raga pianist Utsav Lal. More on this event can be found HERE.

And here is what the event website says: 

Trailblazing pianist Utsav Lal scores rarely-shown gem starring Louise Brooks.

A masterwork of the German silent cinema whose reputation has only increased over time, Diary of a Lost Girl traces the journey of a young woman from the pit of despair to the moment of personal awakening. Directed with virtuoso flair by the great G.W. Pabst, Diary of a Lost Girl represents the final pairing of the filmmaker with screen icon Louise Brooks, mere months after their first collaboration in the now-legendary Pandora’s Box.

The Music

New York based Raga pianist Utsav Lal’s innovative performances have been acclaimed by audiences at Carnegie Hall, Southbank Centre, and around the world. He will improvise a unique live score for this screening.
