including two Christopher Nupen films -
"Who was Jacqueline du Pré?"
"Remembering Jacqueline du Pré"

"Who was Jacqueline du Pré?, a tribute by close colleagues, has not been issued before, and is a searching study. The re-issued Remembering Jacqueline de Pré has film of her performing that has lost none of its bewitching power… Rehearsals with the young Perlman, Zukerman, Mehta and Barenboim are lit with a rare exuberance and animal enjoyment." BBC Music

"…Christopher Nupen… interviews du Pré's colleagues and friends, who all pay loving, wide-eyed tribute not only to her staggering musical gifts but also to her girlish exuberance, lack of pretension and emotional sincerity. Perhaps the most affecting portion is a 1980 interview... Not only does Pré's radiant personality shine through its 15 minutes, but also a deeply affecting feeling of quiet sadness that's all the more potent for being entirely free of sel-pity." Gramophone
