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..

Called to replace the predicted Beijing Symphony Orchestra, the Tirana orchestra turned out to be full – perhaps – of goodwill but poor in everything. Unbalanced between the various parts with brasses screaming thanks also to the director Sergio Alapont who could conduct even with just one arm since the two arms move perpetually in synchronism, forgetting the lessons of great masters such as Abbado and Karajan. Better to say nothing further. At the end of the first part Paganini’s concert, the one with the last movement (“la campanella“) which inspired a transcendental study by Liszt. Here the young (but not too much) Gibboni, winner of the 2021 Paganini, demonstrated a technique of great quality (but not exceptional – some notes in the high register were not  very precise). The problem is that Gibboni falls within the category of entirely technical “muscular” performers (except for the aforementioned inaccuracies) as a target in itself. The musical world is full of young athletes (there are many in the piano field) who have forgotten that technique is only the basis on which to build a musical path. This is not the case with Gibboni who also has a faint sound at the lower limit of audibility: I was at the beginning of the second sector but I believe that in the last rows they may only have hypothesized the musical development of the concert.  What more can I say? The same concert performed by great performers (ie. Mullova or Kremer) would have had on an entirely different musical meaning.Obviously  success (not amazing) from the public and encores (the first virtuosic). “Sed de hoc satis”. As it arely happens to me, I left the hall at the end of the first half of the concert.

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.
