The music and legacy of pianist/composer Artur Schnabel are celebrated in a film documenting the preparation of an all-Schnabel concert featuring pianist Markus Pawlik, baritone Dietrich Henschel and the Szymanowski String Quartet. Schnabel’s origins and history are traced with visits to places he had traveled before being forced to leave Germany, with input from a number of prominent musicians.
Director Matthew Mishory and producer Markus Pawlik will introduce the film.
