‘El Encuentro: A Film for Bandoneon and Cello’ DVD, Munich – Germanyby Rob Howard |
 |
 ‘El Encuentro: A Film for Bandoneon and Cello’, by Norbert Wiedmer and Enrique Ros, follows bandoneonist Dino Saluzzi and cellist Anja Lechner to locations in Argentina, Germany, Armenia, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. "Your perception of music and your way of playing music change when you travel" says Anja Lechner. The camera joins the journey and underlines the point, illuminating the processes of music making in very different contexts. These two musicians come from diverse backgrounds - Dino from South American tango and folk traditions and Anja from the world of European classical music, but they have worked closely together since the mid-1990s. ‘El Encuentro’ (The Encounter) offers insights into the life of these travelling musicians seen here in concert, in rehearsal sessions, at recording studios, and in informal settings - in conversations without words, and in lively exchanges of ideas, philosophy, and experiences. They are variously joined by composer Tigran Mansurian, arranger Levon Eskenian, pianist George Gruntz, and Dino's brother, saxophonist/ clarinettist Felix Saluzzi. The journey culminates in a concert of Dino's music with the Metropole Orchestra in the Musziekgebow, Amsterdam. The DVD is in Pal format, playable on all regions, released on December 3rd 2012 and available on Amazon. For further information email: ecmrecords@ecmrecords.com |
