These four films from across two continents capture every aspect of Daniel Barenboim’s immense musicality, from pianist to conductor to orchestra-founder and champion of peace. From his period as Music Director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra comes a thrilling concert of French and Spanish music given in Cologne in 2000, while a virtuoso all-Liszt piano recital at La Scala, Milan in 2007 is appropriately Italian-themed. A visit to Barenboim’s native Buenos Aires brings a tribute to the masters of the tango, while the pioneering East-Western Divan Orchestra is seen performing among the colonnades of the Palace of Charles V in the Alhambra.
