Riccardo Chailly is one of the most exciting musicians of our time. This very first portrait shows him working with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and other leading orchestras, accompanies him on tour and with his family in Italy. It delineates the artist, the conductor as well as the husband, (grand)father and patriarch. It shows him in private settings as well as at work with leading orchestras of the world: With the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig he continues his acclaimed Mahler cycle; his passion for opera is documented in Valencia, where he recently produced Puccini's "La Bohéme" with young vocal talents (cf. Puccini, La Bohème from Valencia. Prog. No. A93050003).
