34 - Jacqueline du Pré: Genius & Tragedy

Introduced and narrated by Yo-Yo Ma, Jacqueline du Pré: Genius and Tragedy, tells the story of the enigmatic cellist, whose career was cruelly curtailed by multiple sclerosis when she was just twenty-eight years old. It is full of candid moments off-stage and in rehearsal, together with powerful concert performances. The charismatic cast provide an incomparable insight into why the affection for du Pré and the wonder at her playing remains undiminished nearly forty years after her death in 1987.
