MUSE/IQUE & THE WALLIS PRESENT
MUSE/IQUE: WELCOME TO THE DREAM FACTORY
The Hollywood Imagination and the Immigrant Composers Who Built It
May 3, 2025 - May 4, 2025
The incredible story of Hollywood’s first Golden Age and the European immigrants who came to Los Angeles in the 1930s and 1940s and invented the modern art of film scoring.
MUSE/IQUE & The Wallis welcome you to the golden days of Hollywood, where audacious dreams were built on sound stages by composers, actors, and directors, and lit up for the world on silver screens. Through soaring scores from films like The Wizard of Oz, Sunset Boulevard, and Casablanca, we present a story of resilience and imagination that transformed Hollywood into a beacon of opportunity.
When immigrant artists (including many talented Jewish composers) fled oppressive rule across Europe and landed in Los Angeles, they brought with them new influences and perspectives that changed studios like MGM, 20th Century Fox, and Universal Studios forever.
