About this listen

Classical pianist and conductor Murray Perahia and film director and choreographer Stanley Donen on this edition of Fresh Air. Murray Perahia has a new CD: Chopin Etudes: Opus 10, Opus 26. He also explores the music of J.S. Bach in recent recordings, including Bach's Keyboard Concertos Vol. 1 which he recorded and conducted with the St. Martin in the Fields ensemble. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly co-directed and co-choreographed Singing in the Rain. There's a new 50th anniversary DVD edition of Singing in the Rain. Donen also directed On the Town, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Funny Girl, and more. He collaborated with Gene Kelly as dance director on such films as Cover Girl, and Anchors Away. In 1998 he was given an honorary Oscar for what the Academy called "a body of work marked by grace, elegance, wit, and visual innovation." (Original Broadcast Dates: April 11, 2001 and February 8, 1996)
