On March 10, the experimental trio Devil Music will perform an original soundtrack to a rare silent kung-fu and wuxia film, 1929’s “Red Heroine.’’ Devil Music first brought the film to the United States four years ago when they performed it at Chinatown’s outdoor “Films at the Gate’’ series; but this month, they accompany the film on its most important voyage yet - the one back home to China, for the Jue Festival of Art in Beijing and Shanghai. Boston audiences will get a warm-up concert next Saturday at MassArt’s Pozen Center.
