Product Description

Product Description

Filmmaker Daniel Anker offers a look at the multitude of faces and personalities behind one of America's most celebrated symphonies in this documentary. For over a hundred years, the Philadelphia Orchestra has been an internationally respected ensemble, performing all across the United States and around the world, but Music From the Inside Out examines the 100 individuals that make up the orchestra. The players discuss how they fell in love with music, their other creative and musical pursuits (some of the musicians perform with jazz, world music, and even bluegrass groups, while others creative visual art), the struggles and rewards of pursuing their dreams, what speaks to them creatively, and how so many people with differing temperaments can work together to create beautiful music. Music from the Inside Out was produced and financed in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, but enjoyed a critically-acclaimed tour of film festivals and art theaters before making its bow on television.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lovely look into the world of the orchestra musician May 3 2011
By K. Gordon TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
Enjoyable, sweet, sometimes moving documentary about the lives and approaches to music of various members of the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra.
While a very good film, its not quite a great one, as it stays a little on the surface (it could actually use more running time). Plus talking in literal terms
about one's feelings while playing music seems like it is sometimes simply hard to do for some of these musicians. So some of the stated insights seem
obvious. (e.g. one has to subsume one's ego when playing in an orchestra). The sections where we see music (of a wide, appealing variety) played are
well-photographed and absorbing. Certainly worth seeing, even if one could wish for more.

5.0 out of 5 stars understanding music Oct 22 2010
By Robert Baker
Format:DVD
This video is an interview with the members of the Philadelphia Harmonic Orchestra asking the question, "What is Music?". I'm an adult student of the guitar, and for me this is one of the best learning tools I've found to understand music theory. The great thing about it is the fact that when I watch this video in the evening, my guitar playing improves immensely the following day.
