I found 4 to be a diverse education in culture. Each performer is a product of their up-bringing and bring to their performance this complexity… from the strict technical attributes of Japan offset by the softness of the Spring season vistas to the relaxed yet poetic performances in Finnish Lapland's winter.
The Jewish deli in New York with such diverse cultures at the table amused me, and was reflected in the diverse members of the 3rd movement ensemble. Capturing the rigours of getting to a remote Australian location, well Thursday Island, and then executing ‘Summer’ in the heat of the local bar was like a Greek in the court of the indigenous peoples.
A splendid musical documentary encompassing the world !
