Tony Palmer’s film was the first major exploration of the life and career of the great American soprano Renée Fleming - for many, the epitome of the modern-day diva. Share an intimate visit with Renée behind the scenes, at home and on stage as she rehearses and performs in Verdi’s Otello and Requiem, and sings Strauss, Mozart, Dvorák, Korngold, Ellington, Gershwin, Puccini, Massenet and Rachmaninoff.
Other world-class artists featured in this fascinating personal portrait include: Luciano Pavarotti Plácido Domingo, Sir Peter Hall, Valery Gergiev, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Katarina Witt, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Ben Heppner, Daniel Barenboim, André Previn and Gianfranco Ferré.
