Khatia Bunitishvili in Kiev
Mussorgsky - Pictures at an Exhibition
Khatia Buniatishvili's guest appear­ance in Fall 2015 at the International Center of Cul­ture and Arts in Kiev fea­tures the piano suite PIC­TURES AT AN EXHI­BI­TION, that was written by Mussorgsky in hon­our of his deceased friend, the ar­chi­tect Victor Hartmann.
Buniatishvilis mu­sical prom­enade re­veals an extraor­dinary thrilling interpretation, accompa­nied by im­pres­sions of Kiev’s cultur­al life including vis­its at artists friends and the current mayor of Kiev, the for­mer heavyweight champion, Vitali Klitschko.

BFMI has recorded the Los Angeles Philharmonic Season Opening Gala 2014, paying hommage to one of the greatest film composers of the modern age, featuring mutual friends Itzhak Perlman, Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
Best known for his film scores and ce­re­mo­ni­al mu­sic (such as the 1984 Olympic Fan­fare), Wil­li­ams has com­posed the mu­sic for nearly eighty films in a ca­reer span­ning over six dec­ades. John Wil­li­ams is the win­ner of 5 Academy Awards, 17 Grammys, 3 Golden Globes, 2 Emmys and 5 BAF­TA Awards.
Mozartwoche 2015
Horse Dressage by Bartabas Set to Sacred Music
BFMI took the op­por­tun­ity to re­cord Dav­ide pen­it­ente, a won­der­ful piece per­formed dur­ing Moz­art Week 2015. The spec­tacle com­bines an out­stand­ing beau­ti­ful in­ter­pret­a­tion of Moz­art’s mu­sic with the ex­cep­tion­al art of horse dressage. It is staged by the unique French eques­tri­an cho­reo­graph­er Bart­a­bas and his team from the Académie équestre de Ver­sailles. Bart­a­bas’s art can hardly be cat­egor­ized – his in­ter­pret­a­tion of Moz­art’s mu­sic brings to­geth­er horses and hu­man be­ings, mu­sic, move­ment, light and cos­tumes in a po­et­ic syn­thes­is of all the arts. In the Felsen­reit­schule he in­nov­at­ively fo­cuses the lime­light on the stars for which this unique ven­ue was cre­ated over three cen­tur­ies ago: horses.

The cast in­cludes Les Mu­si­ciens du Louvre Gren­oble, the so­loists Chris­ti­ane Karg, Mari­anne Cre­bassa, Stan­islas de Barbeyrac, and the Salzbur­ger Bach­chor un­der the bat­on of Marc Minkowsky.

Broad­cast dates:

ORF 2: Sunday FEB 8, 10:15 a.m. + Monday FEB 9, 03.20 p.m.
Arte: Sunday JUN 21, 07:00 p.m.
