    Aviation was still only in its infancy when military strategists began to think of its importance for waging war. The first World War saw brave pilots risk their lives in 'dog fights' over the trenches and men like Manfred von Richthofen the Red Baron and Ernst Udet became national heroes in Germany. The Versaille Agreement put a quick end to further development of the German air force even though a great deal was carried out in secret. Then came Hitler's meteoric rise to power and the German Luftwaffe staged a full dress rehearsal of modern war plane technology during the Spanish civil war. The Luftwaffe quickly became a war machine to be reckoned with. The swift victories achieved during early years of World War II would not have been possible without the German air force. The gradual build-up of Allied air superiority during the course of the war later prompted German scientists and engineers to concentrate on the first jet-powered and rocket-propelled aircraft. But these revolutionary new technologies came too late to stave off the gradual collapse of the German forces. This programme features rare film excerpts in colour and black and white which illustrate the development of the German air force from 1914 onwards in an objective and exciting way.

  • Piano Mania [DVD]Piano Mania | DVD | (14/11/2011) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £16.99

    Pianomania is an award winning documentary that takes the viewer along on a humorous journey into the secret world of sounds, and accompanies Stefan Knpfer at his unusual job with world famous pianists like Lang Lang, Alfred Brendel, Rudolf Buchbinder, Till Fellner and Pierre-Laurent Aimard, among others. The tone isn't breathing - complains pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard, distraught. This is a typical sentence in Steinway & Sons' chief technician and Master Tuner Stefan Knpfer's normal work day. Each piano has its own personality, each piece demands its own timbre, and every interpretation has a particular temperament. To find the right instrument with the necessary qualities, compatible with the vision of the virtuoso, to tune it to perfection and to finally get it on the stage, needs nerves of steel, boundless passion, and the extraordinary competence in translating words into sounds. This unusual film by Lilian Franck and Robert Cibis tells - with love and humor - of moments of absolute love of attention to detail and perfection. Pianomania observes, from unique angles, the suspenseful search for the perfect tone. Pianomania is a documentary about love, perfection and a little bit of madness...
