This film was produced with the support of the Royaumont Foundation and the Research Laboratory in Musicology (IReMus, Sorbonne University).
Ester, pianist, educator and researcher, is interested in the meanders of musicians’ brain activity. On the thread of music, this film offers a poetic vision of research in the neuropsychology of music in a balad-exploration of the musical mental imagery and the pianists’ inner representation of music. Different musical pieces that are the subject of her research lead us on a journey at the crossroads of musicology and cognitive psychology.
