Synopsis

Yehudi Menuhin was the greatest violinist of the 20th century, a child prodigy whose personal life remained enigmatic. He toured relentlessly across the globe, holding the longest recording contract in music history with EMI. Believing music should be accessible to all, Menuhin brought classical music to wider audiences and championed its power to transform lives. A passionate idealist, he dedicated himself to humanitarian causes. This film, marking the centenary of his birth, features family and friends sharing memories of his remarkable musical journey, which encompassed everything from Bach and Beethoven to jazz and Indian ragas. Rare home movies offer an intimate look at his life, from his California childhood to encounters with Romani people in Romania and travels to India and beyond.
