Music From the Inside Out is a new documentary film providing an insider's perspective on life in the Philadelphia Orchestra. A featured film at this year's Philadelphia Film Festival, it is being shown today (April 20, 2005) to a sold-out Prinz Music Theater and opens Friday at the Ritz Five.
While many orchestras have had similar documentaries made about them, this one shows an extraordinary eye for frame composition and color, plus an all-around meticulousness - right down to the graphics - that puts it above others.
A highlight of the film is the story of Adam Unsworth:
[...] who aspired to be that rarest of musical birds, a jazz French hornist, only to find that the classical repertoire offered him a living. He is now one of the orchestra's sturdiest players.
