Jazz pianist and composer Jean-Michel Pilc is viewed by many to be a 21st century master. His improvisational concepts transcend genre while remaining grounded in a rigorous compositional framework.
This one hour documentary film offers privileged access to Pilc playing his exhilarating music in intimate settings.
Experience this rare talent up close at his country home, in the studio, whistling bebop on the streets, teaching and spellbinding audiences across New York City.
"His portrait of pianist Jean-Michel Pilc is a brilliant documentary of a musician who believes that it’s very difficult, almost impossible, for an artist to discuss his art. So McCormick is perceptive and sensitive enough to let Pilc’s music do much of the talking". Donald Elfman, All About Jazz NY Feb 2011
