Gérald Caillat followed the members of the Spira mirabilis and reveals the unique methods of this atypical orchestra – New VOD release on medici.tv.
Spira mirabilis was founded in Italy by a bunch of young musicians, who play in the best European orchestras.
Those musicians decided to gather, not with the goal of creating an orchestra capable of performing on stage, but in order to make music together. Thus, the instrumentalists study a work and discuss all the possible interpretations, before deciding which way they would like to perform it. No music director, but all of them are music directors.
A unique method, illustrated in this excerpt: watch the musicians rehearsing the Scherzo from Schumann’s First Symphony:
- La Spira, a film by Gérald Caillat, available on medici.tv (with English subtitles/French subtitles),
