Recording of a masterclass by the famous Russian conductor Valery Gergiev for three novice colleagues. Gergiev guides his pupils the way he conducts his orchestra: with passion, humour and unimpeachable authority. The gripping drama of the learning process is underscored by the music -not only the pieces performed, but also the specially written score by Paul M. van Brugge.
