Recorded on the picturesque historical Market Square in Leipzig, this is the live performance of world-famous musicians from classic to jazz to world music.

Dutch director Frank Scheffer collaborates with Andrew Culver for a series of four short films celebrating the theories and music of avant-garde composer John Cage. In 19 QUESTIONS, Cage answers questions on a variety of subjects. In FOURTEEN, the Ives Ensemble performs Cage's composition of the same name, filmed with multiple cameras using chance operations to determine the position, angle, focus, and aperture settings of each shot. In PAYING ATTENTION, Scheffer and Culver combine separate audio and video portions from an interview with Cage. And in OVERPOPULATION AND ART WITH RYONJI, Scheffer combines the audio of Cage's spoken performance with his musical piece for four voices and percussion.

While not as well known as Haydn's masterpiece "The Creation," his work on "The Seasons" is considered one of the links from the classic era into the romantic era at the start of the 19th Century. Written near the end of his life, "The Seasons" took two years of disciplined work, and the freshness he imbued gives it a fresh quality that makes it one of the most popular oratorios even to this day. This DVD presents Helmuth Rilling conducting the Gachinger Kantorei and Bach Collegium Stuttgart. Beautiful shots of nature are intercut with the film and the director features exciting and fresh editing, lights and camera angles.
