“Part classical, part avant-garde, part flamenco, the legendary piano duo Katia and Marielle Labèque are impossible to label.”
The Labèque Way follows these unique artists as they trace their Basque roots, playing Ravel’s Bolero with traditional Basque percussion, premiering a daring new concerto, Nazareno, which they had commissioned, and taking part in diverse artistic and personal adventures. Featuring friends and collaborators such as Sir Simon Rattle, Semyon Bychkov and Alessandro Baricco, among others, the film includes performances of works by Mozart, Schubert, Ravel, Albéniz, Golijov and Gershwin.
