• Helene Grimaud - Living With Wolves | DVD | (24/11/2008) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £8.99

  The playing of the young pianist H''l''ne Grimaud has been described as ''fire and ice passion and reason all in one'' (Le Monde de la Musique); ''coiled energy eventuating in unbridled excitement'' (NewYork Times);''superlative technique.. .she unfailingly delivers original inflected conceptions of the music'' (Financial Times). But she is not only an extraordinary pianist she is also an extraordinary woman consumed by two loves in life -music and wolves. With her partner photographer J. Henry Fair she has founded a Wolf Conservation Centre at her home in South Salem New York. Grimaud came to music because it was the last resort of her parents university professors in the South of France. ''I was so easily bored. I was a distraction in the classroom. They tried martial arts they tried sports. Then someone suggested music.'' Music cured her boredom and her facility for playing the piano proved to be astonishing. By the age of thirteen she was accepted by a unanimous vote into the Paris Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique. In 1985 she was awarded first prize in Jacques Rouvier''s class and was invited to participate in masterclasses given by Gyorgy Sander Leon Fleisher and Jorge Bolet who said of her ''It has been a long time a very long time since I have met a natural talent of such quality and musical sensibility.'' Her concert career took off in 1987 and now she performs with major orchestras around the world as well as being in demand for recital appearances. In February 2000 she was named 'Soloist of the Year'' by 'Les Victoires de la musique''. Still in her early thirties she is arguably one of the very top pianists of her generation. To be spontaneous not to be afiaid of taking risks and always to play as though it is the first time is Helene Grimaud''s maxim. This encounter with Grimaud captures the essence of a musician and woman who is full of surprises. Refi-eshingly open and engaging she gives an insight into her life and her music and is seen at work in Europe performing rehearsing and recording. At home in upstate New York her passion for wolves and her concern to educate people about these top predators is evident as she introduces her charges. There are extensive performance extracts featuring Helene Grimaud as a concert soloist a chamber musician and in recital playing music by Rachmaninov Bach/Busoni Beethoven Brahms and Schumann. Musical Extracts: Rachmaninov: Piano Concerto No.2 Rachmaninov: Corelli Variations Bach/Busoni: Chaconne in D minor Rachmaninov: Etude tableau No.1 in F minor Beethoven: Piano Sonata No.31 in A flat Schumann: Piano Quintet Brahms: Piano Concerto No.1 Gershwin: Piano Concerto Beethoven: Piano Concerto No.4 Brahms: Violin Sonata No.3

• Shirley Temple | DVD | (24/11/2008) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Shirley Temple is arguably the most popular and famous child star of all time. Known for her blond ringlets and her ability to sing and tap-dance she appeared in dozens of films and was Hollywood's biggest box-office attraction from 1936 to 1938. Shirley's popularity and the large gross revenues her films generated transformed the struggling Fox Film Corporation into a major film studio. Temple began her career in a series of Baby Bulesks short subjects that featured children in adult roles that today would be considered highly inappropriate. However when Fox signed her in 1934 the studio abandoned the infant sexpot image and let her be what she really was - an energetic resilient good-natured little girl. Sophisticated and by all measures a highly professional performer Temple had no difficulty upstaging her experienced costar many of whom were veteran performers. Among the films Temple made for Fox were The Little Colonel Curly Top Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm and The Little Princess. Although Temple made a number of films as a teenager among them Miss Annie Rooney (1942) and The Bachelor and the Bobbysoxer (1947) America had seemingly outgrown its infatuation with Shirley. The films were not successful and in 1949 she retired from acting at the age of twenty-one. This film collection features many classic moments from Shirley Temple's relatively short but enormously successful screen career. Episodes Comprise: 1. Glad Rags To Riches 2. War Babies 3. Kid 'N' Hollywood 4. Polly Tix In Washington 5. Kid 'N' Africa 6. Dora's Dunking Doughnuts 7. Pardon My Pups 8. Shirley Temple - Biggest Little Star of the Thirties 9. The Little Princess
