About the Film:
Daniel Blumenthal’s Biopic: ‘An American Pianist in Brussels' retraces the life of a talented musician, who’s also truly humble. The film was made under Covid because none of us, Irdecof's Team, wanted to wait and do nothing during the Beethoven Year. So, we decided to shoot Ludwig van Beethoven’s Sonata N° 30 Opus 109 and, further on, to make this very special Biopic by a friend for a friend. In ‘An American Pianist In Brussels’, Daniel Blumenthal also reveals his very own teaching method, in other words, an exchange of musical views enriching both the master and his students. Imagine, if all the teachers in the world taught like him, I’m sure the world would be a better place for all.
