paul bielatowicz’s nosferatu live

ThuOct292026

Step into the shadows this Halloween season with Nosferatu LIVE, a spine-tingling rock spectacle that breathes new life into the 1922 silent horror masterpiece. Created by guitarist and composer Paul Bielatowicz (Carl Palmer’s ELP Legacy, Neal Morse), this multimedia concert fuses classic horror with jaw-dropping musicianship and heart-pounding progressive rock.

Performing an original score live on stage, Paul and his band transform the silent film into a thrilling cinematic experience unlike anything you’ve seen before. The Nosferatu LIVE band features an incredible lineup: bassist Mike Dutko (Gary Hoey) and drummer Tobias Ralph (Adrian Belew Power Trio, The Crimson ProjeKCt).

Audiences are immersed in the world of Nosferatu through atmospheric synchronized lighting, while three onstage screens display the 1922 film alongside virtual appearances from an all-star lineup including Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal (Guns N’ Roses, Sons of Apollo, Asia), Arthur Brown (The Crazy World of Arthur Brown), Dave Bainbridge (Strawbs, Iona), Peter Zay (New Bedford
Symphony Orchestra), and Simon Fitzpatrick (ELP Legacy, Jennifer Batten).

Part concert, part film, part Halloween ritual, Nosferatu LIVE is an unforgettable night where classic horror meets electrifying progressive rock. Costumes & screams encouraged!

PAUL BIELATOWICZ

Born on the 25th of November 1978, I entered the world in the general hospital of Burnley, Lancashire, England.

As a young child my parents soon found that I had far too much energy and, in an attempt to tire me out, decided to send me to gymnastics lessons! Apparently one characteristic of an only child (that’s me) is that they tend to throw all their energy into one thing… so it was that I became obsessed with gymnastics; entering competitions, reading books, choosing the subject whenever I had to do a school project and eventually going to training sessions 4 days a week.

At around the age of 7, whilst still a gymnast, I expressed an interest in playing the guitar – my dad had always played and we would often sing songs together. My parents bought me a child-sized nylon strung acoustic guitar for Christmas and I started taking classical guitar lessons.
