69 - THE SOUND OF LEIF OVE ANDSNES

"This silvery quality he manage to find in his sound, I can't think of anyone else who has that quality in their playing..." (Edwards Gardner). In this documentary we are searching to find the sound of both the pianist and the person, Leif Ove Andsnes. We get a deep insight into his dedicated work with major piano concertos and he also opens up about the challenge of combining a life as international artist with a normal family life. We get close to a unique personality, backstage and at home.
