Director: Daniel Anker

Language: English

At the start, documentary filmmaker Daniel Anker poses the question "What is Music?" to the members of the prestigious Philadelphia Orchestra. Some laughs and some groans. Following the 105 members on and off stage for five years, the film explores the essence of music. The artists reveal their roots and passions for music in one-on-one interviews and group discussions which are skillfully put together with delightful scores — from Beethoven to Stravinsky. A stirring and thoughtful documentary.
