PS Un “blogger” non è un oracolo e commette inevitabilmente errori (il minimo possibile..). Ricevo spesso “correzioni” non sempre fondamentali e non sempre precise. Così come io mi sottopongo al giudizio altrui con nome e cognome così chi vorrà avere la bontà di segnalarmi eventuali errori o imprecisioni dovrà farlo unicamente mandando un commento: a ognuno la propria responsabilità. In base alla nuova normativa chi si fosse iscritto e desidera de-iscriversi è sufficiente che mi invii un messaggio e-mail..

A concert just perfect. Two artists who play by heart, able to integrate themselves with a perfect dosage of sound and interpretative aspects. Repin needs no introduction: suffice it to say that at the age of 11 (eleven!) he won the Wieniavski and then the Brussels Prize, etc.  Repin does not concede anything to pure virtuosity but being gifted with a superlative technique he can devote all his executive attention to the interpretation, always controlled and stylistically impeccable. Lugansky, on the other hand, is the standard-bearer of a more emotional pianism but always in the context of a stylistically indisputable approach. (It’s almost unbelievable that – at least to my knowledge – he has never been invited to give a concert in Bologna). The presented program has been tested for years (there is also a recorded version) and as such sedimented and perfected. Repin did not miss a single intonation (as might be expected) while Lugansky showed some minor imperfections in the second and the last movements of Franck’s sonata due to the exuberance of his approach. But absolutely venial sins. Two encores not too virtuosic. A Waltz by Tchaikovsky and a “czarda” by an author unknown to me. Two frankly questionable pieces from the musical point of view. Great success with a large but not very large audience (Sanremo ..?). Proof of the fact that the Quartetto of  Milan is the most serious and important concert organization in Italy, total absence of the boring introductory speech and the indication not only to switch off the ringtones of mobile phones but to turn them off absolutely to prevent the light from disturbing the listening. Food for thought.…

PS A “blogger” is not an oracle and inevitably makes errors (the minimum possible..). I often receive “corrections” not always fundamental and not always accurate. Just as I submit myself to the judgement of others with the name and surname so those who want to have the goodness to report errors or inaccuracies will have to do so only by sending a comment: everyone has his own responsibility.
