The Skirball Cultural Center presents the film "Rhythm Is It!" The film is directed by Thomas Grube and Enrique Sánchez Lansch, this award-winning film documents the first major educational outreach project of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra under Sir Simon Rattle. Seen through the eyes of three teen-aged protagonists, Rhythm Is It! shows the full range of the project's development, from its initial steps to crises of confidence to a renewal of purpose. Offering deep insight into the rehearsals of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the film is a delightful and moving testimony to the power of music and the need to prioritize arts education.
