Episode 4 - FIREWORKS
Introduction by Anda Anastasescu
A rebel student in the piano class of the famous Miss Florica Musicescu (well known as Dinu Lipatti’s teacher) Costi wants to become a composer. His effervescent imagination, orchestral thinking and unconventional approach make his works very challenging for the performer. Silvestri the magician offers us clues and Stravinsky and the bicycle complement them!
