Summary |
This film follows Vladimir Ashkenazy, with his Icelandic wife Thorunn and their two children from Iceland on a tour of Europe, observing them at a time when they were deeply engaged in a process of dramatic change and reflecting daily on their situation and their problems. The film includes sequences with Itzhak Perlman, Daniel Barenboim, Edo de Waart and the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra. There is music by Beethoven, Chopin, César Franck and Stravinsky. It is also a closely observed account of one of the most demanding and rewarding of all professions and was described by Ingmar Bergman on Swedish television in 1972 as the best he had seen about a living musician |
