We had the exclusive right to follow the whole orchestra on its last tour to Japan starting filming already at the rehearsals and preparations in Vienna.The protagonists of the film are the famous Italian conductor Fabio Luisi, the woman in charge of the whole logistic organisation of the tour and some further orchestra musicians.
