What is the name of the violinist
who plays Bach so beautifully?
Thank you –
What is the name of the violinist playing at end of final episode? ThanksTFalk
Am I hearing, in the solo piano music when Hemingway’s typewriter is being featured, music by Erik Satie? If not, whose music is that?
Yes! Satie’s Gymnopédies appears during Episode 1. Love that piece…
Forgive me – it’s Gnossienne #1, not Gymnopédies.
What is the piano piece at the end of the film when details of Hemingway’s death are being related?
Kurtis Parks is one of the piano artists in this documentary. His piano music is background during some commentary. He is my son.
What is the piano piece at the end of the film when details of Hemingway’s death are being related?
Have been searching for that song too, simple yet haunting. Was looking at the music credits from the end of the third episode and based on that I think it must be Twilight by David Cieri – – a song I’ve been unable to find anywhere and thus can’t confirm.
It’s Bach, but I think an arrangement made for the documentary. It’s Partita No. 1 in B minor, BWV 1002: V. Sarabande. Most versions a person can find are violin. That slow piano is wonderful though.
Love the soundtrack especially Erik Satie 🥰
at the end of the second episode, i was nodded off and the music woke me what is it? it plays as the credits are shown.
