The Maestro going Downhill

When it came to sports, Peter Thomas kept it like Winston Churchill – “no sports” was his motto. Out of love for his wife, he went skiing for the first time in Kitzbühel when they bought a beautiful farm there in 1963. With the exception of the photos shown here, I have not seen my father on skis otherwise. He did, however, write the film music for Gunter Sachs’ ski film “Happening in White”, which is played as background music in this clip.
