Has anyone seen this video "From Mao to Mozart: Isaac Stern in China"?
CV-002 "From Mao to Mozart: Isaac Stern in China", published in 1980
Murray Lerner, dir., Hopewell Foundation, distr. Karl-Lorimar Home
Video, CA, 1980. 84 min. Grades 7-12+
In 1979, violinist Isaac Stern made a diplomatic visit to China as
part of a cultural exchange program. This documentary shows Stern's
encounters with Chinese musicians who had been forbidden to hear or
play "decadent" Western music during the Cultural Revolution. He
holds a master class with talented Chinese students, and conducts a
public performance of Beethoven with a Chinese orchestra.
Note: Additionally, could anyone tell me where I could buy this video?
Thank you and kind regards, JL, Sydney, Australia.
