The Wanderer – Friedrich Gulda

Friedrich Gulda was a musician who refused to be contained — a restless spirit forever wandering between genius and provocation. The Wanderer – Friedrich Gulda (1981) offers a compelling portrait of this extraordinary pianist: at once the consummate Mozart interpreter and the rebellious jazz experimenter who delighted in defying convention. János Darvas’s film follows Gulda through the extremes of his artistic journey — from disciplined mastery to wild self-expression — revealing a man for whom freedom was the only true form of music.
