He is one of the most famous conductors in the world, the eternally young Sir Simon Rattle. We embark on a cinematic journey into the head and heart of an exceptional musician, on highs with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, and to his roots in England. And we learn that making music together is a happy experience. Companions such as his former mentor John Carewe, the conductors Karina Canellakis and Daniel Harding and the director Peter Sellars rave when they talk about Simon Rattle: Because happiness multiplies when we share it!
