* the current score is performable only with the 67 minute, "restored" element of the film (Kino Video).  However, for the performance only a 51 minute badly damaged 16mm element was available causing synchronization problems.  Should these problems re-occur, then a shortened or elongated score should be improvised with the element available to the ensemble.
