Beethoven32 - A film in 32 parts (2021)

Beethoven32 followed Fly On The Wall's partnership with pianist Boris Giltburg to film his 'Everest' challenge to learn all 32 Beethoven piano sonatas in a single year.

Inspired by their collaboration on 'Etudes-Tableaux', Boris commissioned Fly On The Wall to document his journey through the creation of 11 one-hour films. Fly On The Wall chose to mirror Boris' ambition, shooting the performances as a collection of 'one-continuous-cut' scenes, highlighting the intensity of the scenario and the performance-led nature of the journey. Principal photography began in December 2019, and continued throughout the pandemic with intense filming periods taking place both in the UK and Italy in almost complete social isolation.

The final collection was sold by Fly On The Wall to Naxos Records for distribution via Marquee.tv
