Melvin Peters will have fun tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon, performing organ accompaniment to the iconic, vintage 1920 black and white movie The Scarecrow, a family-friendly silent comedy film starring a youthful Buster Keaton.

The performance is at 3pm at St James Church in Morningside as part of the church’s 120th anniversary celebrations.

The screening is part of a concert titled Unconventional, with Peters on organ/keyboards and Jeff Robinson on sax performing a repertoire of interesting and surprising music with a focus on improvisation including an unusual repertoire of hymns.

Tickets cost R100 which include refreshments after the show. Contact Tessa Lee on [email protected] to book.
