BÉLA FLECK: HOW TO WRITE A BANJO CONCERTO

NYC PREMIERE Commissioned to create a first-of-its-kind concerto for the banjo and an 80-piece symphony orchestra, virtuoso musician Béla Fleck faces an intensely personal challenge of collaboration and composition. Named after classical composers, can he live up to the legacy of his namesakes? Directed by Fleck and his brother Sascha Paladino, working together again after Throw Down Your Heart, this intimate film traces his creative process from first note to the premiere concert performance one year later.
