Moonlight Sonata1979
After GYMNOPEDIES, I had long wanted to animate a film specifically for a pre-selected piano piece by Eric Satie. MOONLIGHT SONATA is that film. It was totally designed for the "Gnossienne V" and the movements of the animation are timed to the overall rhythms as well as the specific beats of the music. - Lawrence Jordan

Beautiful, surreal animation set to music by Satie...
Love these Lawrence Jordan films. They're actually the reason I signed up for Fandor - none of these, save Gymnopedies, is on youtube or even available at university libraries. Moonlight Sonata is par for the course for Jordan: beautiful, surreal, and a little child-like.
