Never mind the awkward writing (in translation from the probably awkward
French original), check www.Medici.TV for these upcoming programs:

 Memoirs from Beyond the Grave of the greatest pianist of
 all time.  At the end of his life, Sviatoslav Richter agreed
 to talk in front of a camera to Bruno Montsaingeon and to
 recollect his beginnings.  This stunning documentary film
 is punctuated with fascinating archive footage.

 A remarkable and mysterious star, for decades Martha Argerich
 has lit up the pianistsa - ' firmament with her fascinating
 aura.  The only film on Argerich [not true if you consider
 the joint film about her and Freire - JG]

 Nelson Freire took a long time to come out of relative
 anonymity to occupy his rightful place: one of the leading
 positions in the galaxy of masters of the piano. Here we
 see him perform at the Verbier Festival in 2007, a great
 concert (Bach, Beethoven, Debussy and Albeniz), moving and
 sincere.

PS: Once you are on the Medici site, it's not easy to find advertised
future programs on the calendar; best bet is to check back, and when
a specific program in being streamed (for a week), then it's front and
center.  I tried PLAYLIST, LIVE, CATALOGUE to get to any of the promised
programs and no luck so far.  Corrections, tips are welcome.
