About this listen

 Journey through the extraordinary life of Jean-Christophe Krafft, a German-Belgian musical prodigy, from his humble beginnings to his triumphant return to Paris. Despite enduring grave hardships and intense spiritual battles, Jean-Christophes relentless spirit never wavers. His unique talents are his pride and his curse, as he strives to balance his passion for music with his responsibilities. His life takes dramatic turns as he wrestles with societal injustice, faces conflicts with authority, and grapples with his own conscience, forcing him into exile multiple times. After finding solace in a secluded Swiss corner, he eventually returns to Paris, finally achieving the recognition he deserves.
