'Pianoforte' gives us a look inside this privileged and punishing world of prestigious piano competitions, exposing the highs and the lows of this exclusive community. Our Sundance review:
When it comes to art, there is creating art and then there is perfecting art. Anyone can learn the piano, but can you perfect it? Pianoforte dives deep into the torture and elation that comes with perfecting a talent, something that takes not only natural skills but years and years, hours and hours of practice. The setting: the International Chopin Piano Competition. The characters: a group of driven, competitive concert pianists who vie for the coveted prize of first place.
RELATED: 'Birth/Rebirth' Review: Laura Moss' Reimagining of Frankenstein Comes to Life With Arresting Performances | Sundance 2023 What Pianoforte balances perfectly is the mesmerizing and evocative nature of Chopin's music against the brutality and fickleness of the competition. These are make-or-break moments, there is no plan B, and only one person can truly come out on top. There are no breaks for these kids, one contestant mentions wanting to just play Xbox, maybe for just a little time, before going back to the punishing schedule of practice.
