Sobre el programa...
In this fascinating documentary feature, take a deep dive into the life of one of the most important figures in classical music over the last century: pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim. The man who considers his life's work as a bridge between music and all of humanity opens up about his influences, his views on music, and his sensational artistic journey.
Born in Buenos Aires in 1942, Daniel Barenboim demonstrated an uncommon natural gift for the piano from a very young age, but it didn't take long for his other great vocation to emerge at the conductor's podium. His career as a celebrated maestro took off in 1964 when, for the first time, he conducted the Berlin Philharmonic and met Pierre Boulez, with whom he began a lifelong friendship: a musical career nurtured by human connection. The documentary is punctuated by clips from rehearsals and concerts with Barenboim at the head of world-leading orchestras, like the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Orchestre de Paris, and the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra.
