One of the main projects for 2010 is going to be getting a full length documentary made about Bill Nemoyten, The Hornman. His life is a testament to the power of music and the arts to transform lives for generations. He also happens to be our Jo’s dad (Jo is our CEO and co-owner). For his 80th birthday, she gathered some of his stories into a book and Ian (our Chief Filmmaker and co-owner) made this short film about his life.

If you are interested in investing in The Hornman Documentary Project, please contact us.

  • 2nd Movement: Songs for the Vanished Tribe
  • 3rd Movement: River Bridges March

This wonderful celebration took place at Enrico’s in San Francisco. It honored David Nemoyten, aka Mad Magda, aka Lucien Stern. He had family there as well as friends spanning 30 years. Veronica Klaus is his good friend and she sang as usual on a Tuesday night. And David’s dad and brother really blew their horns!
