Jon Batiste and Suleika Jaouad are interviewed for American Symphony,  an unforgettable documentary which is a big awards contender about the multi-Grammy winning artist Jon Batiste who whilst celebrating a triumphant year in music learns that his beloved wife’s – Suleika Jaouad - long dormant cancer has returned. 
Suleika is the author of the Life Interrupted column at The New York Times and has also written for Vogue, Glamour and more. Her 2021 memoir Between Two Kingdoms was a New York Times Best Seller. 
Early in 2022, multi-instrumentalist Jon Batiste finds himself the most celebrated artist of the year with eleven Grammy nominations including Album of the Year. In the midst of that triumph, Jon is immersed in his most ambitious challenge yet: composing “American Symphony”, an original symphony that thrillingly reimagines the classical traditions of the form, bringing together an expansive and inclusive diaspora of music for a performance at storied Carnegie Hall. This extraordinary trajectory is upended, however, when Batiste’s life partner - best-selling author Suleika Jaouad - learns that her long dormant cancer has returned. In the moving and deeply intimate AMERICAN SYMPHONY, Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director Matthew Heineman (Cartel Land, The First Wave, Retrograde) delivers a portrait of two inimitable artists at a crossroad and a profound meditation on art, love, and the creative process. 

Linda Marric asks the questions.

The film will be released on the 1st of December, 2023.
