Film Description
One of Palmer's personal favourites of his films, this film reawakens us to what an astonishingly fresh composer Hector Berlioz was.
Mahler and Strauss are known to have studied his scores intimately, such was his absolute and totally original mastery of orchestration. And the famous textbook on the subject by Rimsky-Korsakov, who had actually studied under Berlioz, was on the bookshelves of two other great composers - his pupil Stravinsky, and Benjamin Britten.
Note, includes scenes not suitable for a young audience.
