Description
CIRCLING AROUND: THE VIOLIN VIRTUOSI documents the work of Mimi Zweig and one of the most prestigious violin training programs in the United States. The Indiana University Violin Virtuosi is a collection of 15 violinists between the ages of 10 and 17 who perform both as soloists and as an ensemble. Their demanding repertoire includes the music of Bach, Brahms, Bartok, Prokofiev, Vivaldi and Shostakovich, and many innovative contemporary compositions. The gifted students at the Indiana University String Academy are immersed in an intense musical curriculum of weekly private lessons, chamber music, theory, master classes and rehearsals. From their first squeaky triumphs through their mastery of the instrument, CIRCLING AROUND documents the students' commitment to excellence, exemplified by the hours of practice and rehearsal, the touring and travel, and the struggles of balancing music with school life.
