Come experience the 1920 silent film “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” with a live organ performance by world-renowned concert organist Dorothy Papadakos at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church.

Papadakos, a Julliard graduate, will improvise the accompaniment in real time as the film plays on a large screen in the sanctuary. She served as organist for The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine in New York City from the 1990s through 2001. During her time at the Cathedral she built a reputation with her vivid organ improvisations, for her ability to reach out to involve musicians and music from all walks of life and to integrate this music with the music of the Anglican tradition.

Papadakos will perform in St. Paul’s historic sanctuary on the main pipe organ, a Goulding & Wood 38-rank, 30-stop instrument with the pipes located on either side of the altar. The church also has a 9-rank G & W antiphonal gallery organ with festival trumpets and other ranks that complement the main organ.

Papadakos has performed widely, accompanying other silent film classics “The Phantom of the Opera,” “The Ledger,” “Hunchback of Notre Dame” and “Nosferatu."
