Shot for television, this reworking of Mozart's sublime DON GIOVANNI stars Marco Petri in the lead role. Francesco Molinari Pradelli conducts throughout, neatly supplementing the performances by conjuring a wonderful musical accompaniment from The Orchestra sinfonica e coro di Milano della Radiotelevisione Italiana. Among the other stars are Leyla Gencer, playing Donna Elvira, Teresa Stich-Randall as Donna Anna, Graziella Sciutti playing Zerlina, and many others. Shot in 1960, this is a vintage performance of a true opera classic.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: (unspecified) - Italian Subtitles - English, French, German - Optional

Jimi Hendrix's most experimental album, ELECTRIC LADYLAND features the legendary guitarist using the studio itself as a major instrument to enhance his already adventurous sound. Unfortunately, this sprawling masterpiece would be Hendrix's final studio album before his untimely death in 1970. Featuring classic songs such as Crosstown Traffic, Voodoo Chile, Gypsy Eyes, and All Along the Watchtower, the story of Hendrix's epochal 1968 double album is told in words, music, and rare archival footage. Also included are interviews with Experience bandmates Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, as well as Steve Winwood (who played organ on the album), and, in his last interview, Chas Chandler, the manager (and former Animals bass player) who nurtured Hendrix's career from its infancy.DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English

When the weather gets warm, college quads and parks across the world become the homes to a fascinating phenomenon known as the drum circle. These communal gatherings of percussionists crop up wherever there is an open space, and are sometimes even incorporated into business retreats. Scientific evidence actually suggests that drum circles are good for the health, improving one`s physical and social skills while also relieving stress and increasing attention. Drum circle leader, writer, and musical therapist Christine Stevens leads viewers through this unique celebration of recreational drumming. Stevens covers a wide range of topics in an effort to make drummers and group facilitators feel more comfortable and confident. Lessons include basic methods for hand drums and percussion, the eight keys to successfully leading a drum circle, and facilitation options. Stevens also explores the many positive effects that the activity can have on people`s lives.
