Morderstwo and Usmiech Zebiczny


I (Joseph Appel) Set Roman Polanski's completely silent short films from 1957, Morderstwo ("Murderer") and Usmiech Zebiczny ("Teeth Smile"), to Music. I play various electric and acoustic guitars and do sound effects, Gary Gunther plays bass clarinet and alto flute, Owen Hofmann-Smith plays cello. No sampling, stealing other peoples recordings, or MIDI patches used.
