Emanuel Ax is renowned not only for his poetic temperament and unsurpassed virtuosity, but also for the exceptional breadth of his performing activity. Each season his distinguished career includes appearances with major symphony orchestras worldwide, recitals in the most celebrated concert halls, a variety of chamber music collaborations, the commissioning and performance of new music, and additions to his acclaimed discography on Sony Classical.

Each episode, Marjolaine Laroche (assistant principal double bass, NAC Orchestra) takes you backstage for an intimate, at times irreverent look at the day-to-day life of the orchestral musician. As a regular part of the series, Marjolaine chats with her orchestra colleagues and visiting guest artists on topics ranging from auditions to international touring. (In French)
