Background: Petr Weigl's spell-binding, on-location film of Delius’s masterpiece A Village Romeo and Juliet presents a contemporary view on the timeless tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. The celebrated Decca (Argo) recording features the young lovers, Vreli and Sali, bewitched by the Dark Fiddler (Thomas Hampson).

The drama is set in Switzerland and includes Delius’s celebrated 'Walk to the Paradise Garden'.

This DVD contains an exclusive bonus feature and a previously unreleased documentary, 'Discovering Delius', Derek Bailey's illuminating biography, which traces Delius’s colourful life and career from his early days in Florida through to his tranquil years in Grez-sur-Loing. The film includes contributions from Delius's amanuensis Eric Fenby.
