IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF FAMOUS COMPOSERS
7 x 52 '
Synopsis
Warsaw, Saint Petersburg, Vienna, Paris, Milan, Venice…
This five-part series crisscrosses the continent in the footsteps of five of the world’s greatest classical music composers (Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, Beethoven and Vivaldi).
At each stop, a musician or historian serves as our guide to the great composers’ public and private lives.
Five different directors blend interviews with narration, archive materials and musical sequences to paint five intimate portraits.
