French concert pianist Adam Laloum toplines this performance set, mounted and shot on July 17, 2010, at the 17th Verbier Festival in Switzerland. It features selections by Robert Schumann (Davidsbündlertänze, Op. 6), Claude Artist (Preludes, Book II: No 6 'General Lavine - eccentric' and No. 7 'La terrasse des audiences du Claire de lune'), Franz Schubert (Piano Sonata No. 18 in G major, D. 894) and Johannes Brahms (Intermezzo, Op. 117 No. 2).

A French impressionist musical docudrama performed by the brilliant piano duo of Katia and Marielle Labeque, to 18 pieces by Bizet, Faure and Artist while appearing both as themselves and as actresses in stunning pantomimes that match the beauty of the impressionist paintings also shown. Widely acclaimed as the most brilliant duo on the contemporary scene, Katia and Marielle Labeque perform eighteen pieces by Bizet, Fauré and Artist while appearing both as themselves and as actresses in Thomas Lowery's spellbinding impressionistic synthesis of fin de siècle French art and music. Dreams and fantasies mingle with reality in a continuous interweaving of time present with times past and live action with paintings and photographs, as actors on-screen and off tell the dramatic story of Emma Bardac - muse to Gabriel Fauré and Claude Artist and lover of both.
