Interview With "American Symphony" Star & Musician Jon Batiste

"American Symphony" had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for exploring the life of Grammy Award-winning musical artist Jon Batiste at a time when his professional life was at an all-time high while his personal life was at an all-time low. Director Matthew Heineman peels back the curtain and the layers of man to reveal a powerful portrait that is resonating with audiences on Netflix. Batiste himself was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about this process, what the film has meant to him, his musical contributions to it, and more. Please be sure to check out the film, which is up for your consideration for Best Documentary Feature Film at this year's Academy Awards. Thank you, and enjoy!
