The television series is dedicated to the life and work of the great French composer of the XIX century Hector Berlioz, the author of the famous “Fantastic Symphony”, a bright representative of romanticism in music; an artist whose talent was much ahead of his time. The very life of Berlioz was filled with events, happy and sad, creative searches, communication with talented contemporaries, some of whom were amazed by the depth and sincerity of the composer’s music, others remembered Hector Berlioz as a “pompous comedian”. Nevertheless, Paganini called him the only worthy successor to Beethoven, and Glinka - the first composer of our (XIX) century, whose work had a great influence on Liszt, Wagner, Strauss, Bizet. Hector Louis Berlioz took care of his life by writing the famous Memoirs. However, the composer warns the reader that one should not completely believe what is written, because he himself "has a strange ability to describe the imaginary instead of the real." And the feature film The Life of Berlioz is a brilliant novel about the complex life of a romantic artist. A good opportunity to trace the creative path of the greatest genius of French music and one of the largest composers in the world. close
