Summary |
Benjamin Britten was one of the most extraordinary composers of the 20th century. He produced opera, symphonies, concerti, a War Requiem and children's pieces, all tuneful with an acutely modern flavor. This film is both a celebration of Benjamin Britten's life and work, and a first hand account of his inspired and inspiring relationship with Sir Peter Pears. |
