A BBC Music Magazine Award for The Violin Of The Century

The prestigious BBC Music Magazine gave it's DVD-Documentary prize to Yehudi Menuhin- The Violin Of The Century during it's Awards presentation in London on March 15. Here's the complete jury citation :

This biopic builds a picture of the real man behind the musical legend. Monsaingeon clearly admires his subject, but never descends into empty rhetoric of hero-worship : Menuhin is allowed to analyse the emotional cost of his extraordinary life as a prodigy, the politics of his identity and to reflect on those musicians he worked with. Funny, revealing and instructive. By far the best documentary of 2005.
