It has neither my blessing nor my curse ; )

In a way, I want to like the Concerto better than I do.  I don't mind (I don't think) the extended techniques, nor the sort-of-jazziness; and there's a lot of stuff in it that I like very well, even if it do not make me sit at the edge of my seat.

Intermission now. Flubbed some notes, they'll be imperfections on the document. Live, though, it all felt good.

After enjoying the concert in its entirety . . . although in a perfect world, I should have liked to have been better practiced, to have played my own music better, even as 'twas, in context my performance (and particularly my composition) ranked high.  And they seem likely to invite me back.

When, a few months before his death, Rachmaninov lamented that he no longer had the "strength and fire" to compose, friends reminded him of the Symphonic Dances, so charged with fire and strength. "Yes," he admitted. "I don't know how that happened. That was probably my last flicker."

Word is spreading!  Maybe their performance will go viral on YouTube!
