Martha Argerich
A new double-DVD release contains two films by Christopher Nupen about the brilliant young pianist Daniil Trifonov: ‘The Magics of Music’ and ‘The Castelfranco Veneto Recital’. The clip above is taken from ‘The Magics of Music’ with kind permission of Christopher Nupen and Allegro Films.
The films have won two international prizes, Silver Medal at the New York Film and Television Festival and the Accolade Award. Together they give an intimate portrait of the artist both on and off the stage.
