My pianist friend, Seymour Bernstein will be celebrated at Berkeley Shattuck Cinema

The big day is coming in Mid-March when Seymour: An Introduction will be released nationwide!

SF/East Bay Shattuck Cinemas has already sent advance notice.

Bernstein is the revered author of With Your Own Two Hands, a philosophical and thoughtful step-by-step guide to piano playing. He’s also a teacher, composer, and now featured subject of a documentary that’s already been touted as next year’s potential Oscar winner!

An enticing appetizer to what will be a big screen tribute to the octogenarian guru, is a trailer paired with various rave reviews. These are two of many accrued along the Film Festival route including Lincoln Center’s prestigious showcase, Toronto, and Telluride. The film is a SUNDANCE SELECT as it journeys to movie theaters around the country. (March 13th, 2015 is the kickoff date!)

Needless to say, the upcoming  debut of Seymour: An Introduction is a movie you won’t want to miss.

With certainty, it will gather a large, adoring audience.
