Additional to the concert the Swiss public TV program Sternstunde Musik broadcasts a short film about Simon Rattle. Some musicians that are close to him will talk about their relation and cooperation with him, and about Simon Rattle himself.
One of the interview partners is Barbara Hannigan, one of the most famous sopranos specialized in modern music. She has done numerous concerts with Simon Rattle as a singer. Barbara Hannigan lives in Amsterdam, an interview is needed at short notice.
