Great Conductors: Pierre Boulez - Emotion and Analysis
Great Conductors: Pierre Boulez - Emotion and Analysis The conductor Pierre Boulez described his relationship with Béla Bartók (1881-1945) as a "sympathy between musicians": both belong to the 20th century's most influential artists. A key work of Bartók is the 'Concerto for Orchestra', which was premiered in Boston in 1944. The Film "Emotion and Analysis" follows Pierre Boulez in his rehearsals of this composition with the Berlin Philharmonic in the spectacular setting of the monastery Mosteiro dos Jeronimos in Lisbon. Pierre Boulez explains in a series of interviews the historical origins of Bartók's late work, his own personal style of interpretation and his role as conductor as well as his love of composing.
