Music - A Journey for Life, Riccardo Chailly
"Without inner fire, without physical energy, this profession would be unthinkable," according to Riccardo Chailly, in whose style of conducting accuracy and elegance are unforgettably united with an inexhaustible temperament. This is clear in this portrait of the Italian maestro, which accompanies him working with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, at La Scala in Milan, and in rehearsals for La Bohème at the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía in Valencia.

Jokers - Vincent Peirani, Federico Casagrande, Ziv Ravitz
Jokers Vincent Peirani : accordion, accordina Federico Casagrande : guitar Ziv Ravitz : drums After many collaborations in duo (with Émile Parisien, Michel Portal, Michael Wollny, François Salque) or within his quintet, Living Being, Vincent Peirani wanted to embark on another form of orchestration, that of the trio. With the Italian guitarist Federico Casagrande, who has been living in Paris for many years, and Ziv Ravitz, an Israeli drummer who lives in New York, he forms a hybrid trio, guitar, drums, accordion, in which each musician can take the place of another, to become, by turns, a soloist, a rhythmist, a colourist, and so on. This cosmopolitan formula explores all kinds of music: enigmatic, oneiric, electronic, explosive, colourful, even silent. Everything is permitted and left to the free will of each of the three protagonists. Like the Joker - not so much the fictional super-villain of American comic books as the playing card found in most card decks (the Joker can...

Jazz à Vienne
Yom & The Wonder Rabbis Yom (clarinet, composition) Léo Jassef (keaboard) Guillaume Magne (guitar) Sylvain Daniel (bass) Mathieu Penot (drums) Yom is a talented and inspired clarinet player from Paris who is always exploring an extensive array of musical styles. From the revived Central European klezmer grafted onto jazz and electro music to rock, Americana and contemporary music, this insatiable all-rounder never loses sight of the edges of his musical vision. His debut album, New King of Klezmer Clarinet, came out in 2008. Here he steps into the shoes of his idol Naftule Brandwein with relish. Yom soon stepped away from ready-to-wear to venture into something more bespoke with Unue, an album featuring Wang Li, Ibrahim Maalouf, Denis Cuniot and Farid D. Nouveau then returned two years later with The Wonder Rabbis. At the same time, a series of collaborations with Wang Li, the Chinese mouth harp player, produced the album Green Apocalypse (2012). The clarinet player now wants to...

Andrés Segovia at Los Olivos
Segovia at Los Olivos Directed by Christopher Nupen In fact, in Western classical music, the achievement of Andrés Segovia is unique. As a boy in Granada, he was captivated by the variety of tone colours and the wealth of harmonic possibilities of the Spanish guitar and he saw a future for it that nobody had previously even dreamed of. On those seemingly slender beginnings he set out on a remarkable quest. Using the work done by Fernando Sor and Francisco Tarrega in the nineteenth century and adding the compositions of Johann Sebastian Bach, he began to build not only a career for himself, but to lay the foundations of modern guitar technique and the present-day international popularity of the Spanish guitar as a serious musical instrument. Within twenty years, Andrés Segovia had taught himself the instrument, revolutionised the technique and won acceptance for it on the concert platforms of Europe. He spent the next fifty years giving concerts in almost every part of the world...
