In the 101 auditorium of the Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française, Pierre Fournier plays Bach, Couperin, the C major Beethoven sonata with his son Jean Fonda, the Saint-Saëns concerto, and a Prokofiev march as an encore. Between performances, Fournier is interviewed by the musicologist Bernard Gavoty, and takes questions from the audience. André Girard conducts the Orchestre de chambre de l’ORTF. Originally transmitted on 3 July 1969. (Note the Saint-Saëns concerto and Beethoven Sonata are released on the EMI Classic Archive series)
