At the age of 90, Laura Sarti summarises the fundamental building blocks of her exceptionally long teaching practice, in conversation with Norbert Meyn. Laura Sarti's vocal teaching brings together influences from her native Italy, from the tradition of Mathilde and Blanche Marchesi as well as the bel canto teacher Lucie Manen, and from the German/Austrian tradition through Emmy Heim and her long time coach Paul Hamburger. Laura Sarti was born in 1924 in Trieste, Italy where she heard many of the great Italian singers. Her family emigrated to Egypt in 1939. After the war she came to England, where she stayed for the rest of her life. During her operatic career she sang for E.N.O., W.N.O. and Glyndebourne, and she was a founder cast member of both Kent and Scottish Opera. She made many recordings for the BBC and was a noted recitalist. She sings in the Glyndebourne CD of Barber of Seville and in Erato CD of Monteverdi’s Orfeo. A professor and Fellow of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama since the 1970s, she has developed an international reputation as a teacher and regularly gave Master Classes in Britain, France, Switzerland, Sweden, Germany, Ireland and Portugal. She has many pupils of world renown. Beginning with breathing and posture, going on to focusing and balancing vowel sounds, lifting the soft palate, articulation of consonants and appoggio (‘leaning on the breath’), she demonstrates the basic elements of building a technique that will enable a singer to become a true interpreter, able to reveal colours fuelled by the artistic imagination in the sound of the voice. With her pupils Clare Ghigo and Ricardo Panela she demonstrates a typical sequence of exercises and gives brief coaching on operatic repertoire.

This documentary film offers an intimate and compelling portrait of the life and achievements of the legendary pianist and master teacher, Rosina Lhevinne: her years of study at the Moscow Conservatory of Music, her marriage to famous pianist, Joseph Lhevinne, her devastation following her husband's death and her recovery and stunningly productive life from age 65 to 96. Recognized as one of the most remarkable women of the 20th century, Mme. Lhevinne was hailed as the greatest piano teacher in the world. Through her teaching on film, we witness her influence as a creative force that not only preserved the great 19th century Russian pianistic tradition but helped students go beyond themselves to develop their artistic individuality. We see how Mme. Lhevinne's incomparable teaching career flourished after age 65. And we hear extraordinarily beautiful performances from her solo career which began at age 75 and climaxed at age 82 when Mme. Lhevinne made her spectacular debut with the New York Philharmonic under the direction of Leonard Bernstein. Through her playing, teaching, and unique personality we witness how Rosina Lhevinne brought her passion for music making and creative living to generations of students who are now among the great musicians of the world, such as John Browning, Van Cliburn, Misha Dichter, James Levine, Hiroko Nakamura, Kun Woo Paik, Daniel Pollack, Jeffrey Seigel and John Williams. Aside from musical considerations, the examination of Rosina Lhevinne's life and accomplishments is an inspiration to those who have traditionally viewed age in terms of "declining years" and diminished creative output. To those who associate bereavement of a mate with loss of identity, Mme. Lhevinne's story speaks of recovery, adaptability and new opportunities. The elderly may identify with her capability for late-in-life resourcefulness, energy and expressiveness. By focusing on one remarkable artist whose work flourished in the twilight of her life, we may enlighten society on the creative experience, the aging process and the possibilities that lie within both.
