The Kid by Scott Fairdosi

The Kid by Scott Fairdosi is a modern soundtrack to selected scenes from a Charlie Chaplin film of the same name. As one would imagine, the piece embodies many of the qualities that are synonymous with Chaplin and a musical representation of a “kid.” From slide whistles and temple blocks to xylophone glissandi, the piece is an homage to the silent film era with a modern take.

The piece is to be performed alongside an included video of scenes from “The Kid.” A shared click track is provided that performers are encouraged to use to help with musical and visual synchronization. The Kid features a very compact setup where performers share instruments which adds to the excitement and Chaplinesque nature of the piece. This is sure to be a show-stopping favorite for audiences and performers.
