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..

It had been a while since I had listened to such a poor concert. In some respects this even amused me, in the sense that by now we are also too used to young lions who obviously do not always reach high peaks but whose average level is acceptable. Here we are simply not there. And it is not worth to examine the performances of the individual pieces. Geniušas plays loud (almost all the time – in the old days we were use to say ‘pound’, a term that has gone out of fashion) and even in the only instance where he reduced the volume (Une barque sur l’ocean) the sound quality was decidedly at least insufficient. And let’s not talk about the choice of the played pieces. Those by Enescu and especially the young Rachmaninov are a jumble of sounds without a logical thread, a structure, a musical meaning. And of course Geniušas worsened them. A disaster. And crowning the performance were two stunned encores by unknown composers but which reflected the tenor of those in the programme. I spend no further words on an evening just to forget.

PS I would kindly ask the readers of this blog to  register  (which implies nothing) which can be easily made  by “clicking” the black square above each post. By so doing they will receive an e-mail message whenever a new post is published.

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.
