The Untold Story of Igudesman & Joo | Featuring Emanuel Ax | Part 1

Step into the wonderfully chaotic world of Igudesman & Joo in this rare TV special: The Way of I & J, originally created for American Public Television (APT) and PBS pledge broadcasts across the United States. More than just a concert, this special tells the story of how Aleksey Igudesman and Hyung-ki Joo met as young students at the Yehudi Menuhin School and went on to create one of the most unique musical comedy acts in the world. Combining outrageous humour, virtuosic performances, classical music, pop culture and complete theatrical madness, The Way of I & J became a favourite with audiences across America. This special also features legendary pianist Emanuel Ax as a very special guest, joining Igudesman & Joo in unforgettable sketches and musical moments that blur the line between concert hall and comedy stage. From musical disasters to impossible violin tricks, from classical masterpieces to complete nonsense carefully disguised as culture, this is vintage Igudesman & Joo at full power. And this is only Part One… Part Two is coming soon to the channel, featuring even more performances, backstage stories, legendary guests, and moments that probably should never have been broadcast in the first place.
