Ghosts Before Breakfast
Ghosts Before Breakfast is a 1928 German dadaist animated short film directed by Hans Richter. It utilizes stop motion for some of its effects and live action for others. The film does not present a coherent narrative, and includes a number of seemingly arbitrary images.
The original accompanying score composed by Paul Hindemith for a player piano is regarded as lost. New audio tracks have been created by artists such as The [Real Tuesday Weld]. British composer Ian Gardiner, who has written many scores for cinema and television, created a score for the film in 2006. The UK ensemble Counterpoise premiered American composer Jean Hasse's score in 2008, touring the UK - it can be seen on YouTube.
