Hilary And Jackie

The motion picture Hilary and Jackie tells the true story of the ill-fated British cellist Jacqueline du Pré, the wife of pianist/conductor Daniel Barenboim; the accompanying soundtrack is highlighted by a 1970 recording of du Pré performing Edward Elgar's Concerto for Cello and Orchestra in E minor, Op. 85 with the Philadelphia Orchestra, the beauty of her playing a stark counterpoint to the tragic story of her life.
