Concerto: A Beethoven Journey
Over the course of four years, Grabsky and his Seventh Art team followed famous concert pianist Leif Ove Andsnes as he tried to understand and play Beethoven's five piano concertos, which are some of the best pieces of piano music ever written. The end result is a film with lavish cinematography, which is a signature of Grabsky and Seventh Art's style. Leif Ove Andsnes, who is considered to be one of the best pianists of our time, gives us rare insights into the mind of a world-class pianist and access to his personal and professional life. While Leif Ove Andsnes plays these five pieces, we also debunk the many myths about Beethoven's life. The fresh new biography of Beethoven may be the most revealing of all.
