The Grand Feature Film Orchestra (GFFO)
We're a non-profit San Francisco Bay Area student/community group based in Vacaville, California. With a passion for how music, sound effects, and visual media come together to tell stories, The Grand Feature Film Orchestra studies, rehearses, and presents creative original and restored film scores live with the movie. Films from Chaplin, Lloyd, Keaton, Lang, and more, come to life with the music perfectly synchronized with the action on the screen.
Pulling from early twentieth-century cinema, the GFFO brings an authentic world-premiere-style performance mixed with modern flavors to ensure an exciting and unforgettable live concert experience.
Various -- team mentoring with artist/engineer collaboration. The GFFO is committed to the connections between science, technology, engineering, art, and math (S.T.E.A.M). Students work side-by-side with professional artists organized for each project.
Our orchestra membership and services are free of charge. Members should have access to their own instruments. We accept instrument donations and offer our members free use when available.
