Slowing down and composing |
Just a word to say that I am slowing down my public performances to concentrate more on composing and writing. I am in my second pregnancy and have waited a long time to create something substantial s... Posted by on Sat, 19 Jul 2008 10:09:00 GMT |
I’m Back |
I've put a normal photo back in place as you can see - no more stuffed bears. I am working hard but composing and writing - not playing, except for TenGo Tango and maybe other things.
Little boy numb... Posted by on Sun, 13 Jul 2008 16:08:00 GMT |
Le Grand Tango |
Just to say the video is from the 18th January and the track is from the 11th december, and quite frankly I prefer the video version. Everything is live, so it's kind of a risk. I can't wait to do the... Posted by on Sun, 17 Feb 2008 03:15:00 GMT |
The changing times |
Hello,
I haven't written in a long time because I have been working too much.
The Beethoven cycle was completed with aplomb, I received a certain promotion (not of the financial kind unfortunately) a... Posted by on Wed, 06 Feb 2008 00:07:00 GMT |
P.S. |
L'Hammerklavier était un succés. Je l'ai dédié la performance à Katia de Goloubinow.
La serie Beethoven a términé le 2 juin avec les trois dernières sonates. Un très bon concert mais nous sommes tris... Posted by on Wed, 06 Jun 2007 14:08:00 GMT |

Ce soir. |
Ce qui est important ici, c'est le son. La texture. La complexité. La complicité. Je m'en fous de l'image. Est-ce qu'ils vont comprendre la musique? Si je la comprends ils vont la comprendre auss... Posted by on Fri, 01 Jun 2007 01:23:00 GMT |
Getting better and worse |
Well, thanks to the crazy French weather I have chronic sinusitis. Was in fact half-deaf yesterday which was ironic. My health is certainly suffering and I hope that it isn't due to the work I am play... Posted by on Tue, 29 May 2007 03:06:00 GMT |
Now seeking help on the Hammerklavier. |
Normally I'd watch and listen to nothing before a performance but have caved in and so far I have watched video recordings of Brendel, Richter and Edwin Fischer. Also listened to Arrau and Kempff. I h... Posted by on Fri, 25 May 2007 13:10:00 GMT |
THE HAMMERKLAVIER |
I have decided that I must be mad to have put my mental health into such danger and realise why no one in the region wanted to take up this sonata.... The last four weeks have been a revelation and ha... Posted by on Mon, 21 May 2007 08:58:00 GMT |
