Maestro follows Grammy award-winning conductor Paavo Järvi and an array of brilliant musicians as they perform to sold-out music halls across the world.
Travel the globe with one of the industry's most recognizable names and discover a side of classical music few have ever seen. Järvi, who serves as the musical director of the Orchestre de Paris, takes us on a creative journey rich in culture and history. Interviews and an original score from an array of today's top musical talent round out a passionate film that reminds us what we call classical music was once the original revolution in music history.
The revealing footage captures the pressures of self-expression, the rush of performance, and above all, the power of a universal language.
Maestro is an intimate, unprecedented glimpse into the life of a renowned conductor and a vibrant, contemporary portrait of the world of classical music.

In early 2011 The UK's Daily Telegraph newspaper claimed, "The Classical Guitar has a new hero". That man is thirty-year-old Miloš Karadaglic from Montenegro. "I want to wake this instrument from hibernation", he says. From growing up in war-torn Yugoslavia, discovering a battered guitar in his parents' bedroom, Heartstrings tells the story of his love affair with the guitar, taking it to concert halls around the world and restoring it to its rightful place in the pantheon of classical music. The documentary was filmed throughout 2012, the breakthrough year on the concert stage for Miloš with sold-out debut performances and tours around the word, and charts the guitarist's story to date.
