With more than 120 performances a year, Yuja Wang lives a nomadic lifestyle. Travelling the world professionally, two extra small trolley suitcases carry the essentials for a two week trip: dresses, shoes, iPad, iPod and Smartphone.

The story of Jacqueline du Pré is one of the saddest in music. She was one of the finest performing musicians that England has ever produced and she touched people as few have ever done but she stopped playing in 1973 at the age of 28 and died in 1987 at the age of 42. She should have celebrated her sixtieth birthday on the 26th of January 2005 and this television film was made to mark that event. It consists largely of previously unseen material from our archives but also includes the unforgettable last five minutes of the Elgar cello concerto in what has become the best remembered performance of the work ever given.

Who Was Jacqueline du Pré?
directed by Christopher Nupen, fl. 1967; produced by Allegro Films, London, England; performed by Daniel Barenboim, 1942- and Jacqueline du Pré, 1945-1987, in Who Was Jacqueline du Pré? (Guildford, England: Allegro Films, London, England, 2001), 57 mins
Jacqueline stopped playing the cello when she was 28 years old: a victim of multiple sclerosis. She died at the age of 42, after 14 years of unremitting illness. Her story is so unusual, her gift so unexplainable and the sudden and tragic end to it so beyond understanding that the world had to invent its own myths...

Jacqueline stopped playing the cello when she was 28 years old: a victim of multiple sclerosis. She died at the age of 42, after 14 years of unremitting illness. Her story is so unusual, her gift so unexplainable and the sudden and tragic end to it so beyond understanding that the world had to invent its own myths and then, as the years went by, to embellish them. In the process the stories have projected an image of her character that bears less and less resemblance to the real person – who so caught the public imagination and who meant so much to so many people. Who was the real Jacqueline du Pré?
