Interesting interview with Manfred Eicher of ECM by Richard Williams. Film directors keep cropping up. Jen-Luc Godard as a friend and mentor of Eicher’s, and Ingmar Bergman, to whom he compares himself in his role as producer. Photo Colin Eick/ ECM, from an interview from die Zeit in German from last autumn covering similar territory.
