Les Lecons Particulieres de Musique (Private music lessons): a series of DVDs uncovering great musicians of our time, edited by François Manceaux & Olivier Bernager in partnership with Arte & France Musique.

These films take us inside the transmission process between maestro and budding young interpreter.

A film by Jacques Deschamps.
