Furthermore, he aroused enthusiasm of many renowned composers so that they dedicated to him substantial works which became established in the repertoire of the instrument, right from their creation.
　　Thanks to the magic of the DVD and the possibilities of subtitling it allows (English, French, Spanish, German for the PAL version; English and Japanese for the NTSC version) and especially thanks to those (Paul Balmer and Judy Caine) who dreamed and then, gave the life to this production, we have the chance to hear him expressing in their details the episodes of his life completely dedicated to the Music.
　　Let us underline that each of these episodes is magnificently illustrated by a numerous documentation which reflects the quality of the preparation and which makes this production a reference.
　　We also discovered, besides the fantastic instrumentalist and musician we already knew for a long time, a sensitive and warm man... Can this valuable production be seen and heard by the most. _ Guitare Diffusion

　　In his 70th year Julian Bream tells his remarkable story with contributions from John Williams, Peter Pears, Igor Stravinsky, William Walton, George Malcolm, Richard Rodney Bennett and The Julian Bream Consort. Illustrated with over an hour of complete musical performance.
　　Julian Bream is considered by many as the greatest classic guitarist of the twentieth century, as if this were not enough he quietly re invented the renaissance lute and brought it to a new audience.
　　32 chapters and their durations:
　　01 Nocturnal (2'38)
　　Written for Julian Bream, Benjamin Britten's 'Nocturnal' op. 70, is widely regarded as the centrepiece of the modern guitar repertoire and this masterpiece forms an appropriate frame for Julian's story. Director Paul Balmer returned Bream to Aldeburgh, revisiting the original manuscript at Britten's home. This culminated in the guitarist coming out of retirement to perform complete movements of the Britten and the de Falla 'Homenaje' which inspired it, all in the wonderful acoustic of the Snape Maltings.

　　* Director commentary - accessed via 'set up' on the main menu. Some insights into the 'behind the scenes stories'. There is little visible sign of this but Julian became dangerously ill during the filming due to a foot infection. He hardly slept for five months and yet performed 'Nocturnal' and Homenaje at what he regards as a career-best intensity.
　　* Alternative camera angles
　　The new interpretations of Britten's 'Nocturnal' (two complete movements) and De Falla's 'Homenaje' were recorded with 2 cameras. Paul has constructed an 'alternative edit' available at any time during the performances by pressing 'angle' on your remote control. This provides a unique opportunity to observe Julian's extraordinary and unconventional technique.
