Product Description:
An exploration of the magical force of music in the lives of human beings. Yehudi Menuhin comments on the universality of the musical experience and the challenges of performance.

George Rochberg reveals his innermost thoughts about the nature of music and the art of composition. Performances of Bach, Byrd, Victoria, Telemann, Parchelbel, Mozart, Brahms, Fauré and Stravinsky. This celebration of the musical experience was filmed at The Peabody Conservatory of Music and funded by the Ford Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities. PBS broadcast on WNET, New York. MAJOR AWARDS: CINE Golden Eagle, Kenyon Film Festival, Nevada City Film Festival, Hemisfilm Gold Medallion, Cleveland Instructional Film Festival, Houston International Film Festival Bronze Award,National Educational Film Festival Jack London Award.
