That could have been done by director Hans Conrad Fischer who also did film
bios of Mozart, Beethoven and Bruckner and perhaps even Handel, but I'm not
sure. I don't think these are available worldwide or even in circulation
at all. The Mozart bio I know was done in the late 60's, the Bach was done
in the mid 80's.
