The program consisted of much of the music from the new album, starting with Dichterliebe Liederabend It is a first-rate voice, governed by a first-rate technique. That voice is light and lyrical, but it has plenty of body. Dichterliebe Dichterliebe , a singer must traverse a great expressive range, and Bonney never faltered. I must say, I had never quite realized what a profoundly great work Dichterliebe G E thinking of playing or enjoying this transcription, or Busoni, was condemned as a philistine and heretic. Ohlsson is blessedly immune from such pressures. E , in which Ohlsson was better, though still indifferent. The variations in his hands were rather blurry and overwrought, and the marvelous ending was without intensity and pleasure. Closing the first half of the recital were two small works by the American composer John Adams (of Death of Klinghoffer fame, and infamy). The first of these pieces was

He is described as a pianist whose playing is "always close to the soul of the music, filling the space with poetry and life" ( The Washington Post ), and whose "extraordinary exhibition of musicianship and technical control lends the music a freshness, immediacy and conviction one all too seldom encounters" ( The Times , London).

Now, besides playing on my old Italian violin, I am also playing often on my wonderful Meuwissen violin which has a beautiful, flexible sound, a deep G-string and a brilliant E-string.

Extractions: a talk with poet and playwright Victor Korkia Whether a theatre is prospering or going through a crisis, critics never stop urging directors to put on more contemporary plays. The latter agree... and yet, most of them prefer staging classics. Nevertheless, quite a number of dramatists rose to prominence in the past decade - Nadezhda Ptushkina, Maxim Kurochkin, Yelena Isayeva and others. One of them is the poet and playwright Victor Korkia. Victor started writing poems in 1969 and in the 80s he ranked among the top five poets of Moscow. But is was not until 1988 at the peak of Gorbachev's "perestroika" that his first collection of poems and his first play "I Am A Poor Soso Jugashvili", with Joseph Stalin (whose father's name was Jugashvili) as the principal character, came out in print. The parallels drawn by the author, the slightly altered monologues of Czar Boris Godunov from Alexander Pushkin's drama, inserted into the text, induced thoughts about the nature of power in Russia, ways of achieving and maintaining it. "We, post-modernists, are very fond of quotations: we use them as metaphors", Victor Korkia explains. "All we hear around us enters our vocabulary. In fact, there isn't any poetic trick or poetic image that can't be found in Homer".

Extractions: CLASSICAL MUSIC Sweeping Gestures BY Rick Walters I'm not sure how tall the young Russian violinist Vadim Repin really is, but on stage with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra last weekend he seemed NBA-sized. I'll remember this concert for the dramatic impact of his sweeping arm gestures and his statuesque figure swaying around with the music. The 27-year-old Repin is a hot, rising star of classical music. He played Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No. 1, not the most likely piece for a young virtuoso. It's more elegant than showy, more an ensemble piece than a soloist's moment to shine alone. Somehow, that added to the pleasure. Repin was like a thoroughbred at a trot. His restraint was appropriate to this concerto. However, after a prolonged ovation, he couldn't resist a full-speed gallop in an unplanned encore. He briefly coached some surprised MSO players to improvise (!) a two-chord accompaniment and jumped into some amazing variations that used every bowing technique ever invented for the instrument. Repin wasn't the only thing worth remembering about this concert. William Eddins, associate conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, made a whopping MSO debut as guest conductor. Most conductors simply don't have anything close to his emotional confidence and freedom.
CSO Soars In Superb Boston Music Hall With the pressure of Carnegie Hall behind him, violinist vadim repin delivered a more relaxed, ravishing performance of Sibelius D Minor Violin Concerto. http://enquirer.com/editions/2003/04/04/tem_cso04.html
Extractions: BOSTON - On day four of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra's first tour with music director Paavo Jarvi, the usually reserved Boston audience responded with cheers, bravos and two standing ovations. Wednesday was another cold, rainy night on the East Coast, but more than 2,200 came out to hear the CSO play for the first time in Symphony Hall since Max Rudolf brought his orchestra here twice in the '60s. Playing its tour program of Erkki-Sven Tuur, Sibelius and Shostakovich in the stunning acoustics of Symphony Hall, the CSO could compete with any orchestra in the world. Carnegie Hall may have warmth, but the 2,600-seat Symphony Hall, which resembles Vienna's Musikverein, has spectacular clarity and brightness. Add the tremendous precision and musicality of the CSO under Jarvi, and it was an unbeatable combination. Despite a grueling day, the musicians played their hearts out. After performing as the Cincinnati Pops on Tuesday in Carnegie Hall, they spent more than five hours on a bus Wednesday, to arrive in time to play in Boston.
