'The test of a work of art is, in the end, our affection for it, not our ability to explain why it is good' (Stanley Kubrick).

Rózsa: Cello Concerto

Interesting how some passages from the 1st. mov. reminded me of Holmboe.



The current annihilation of a people on this planet (you know which one it is) is the most documented and at the same time the most preposterously denied.

"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people ... then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbour — such is my idea of happiness"

And it's a great piece if my memory serves, so are his Piano Concerto and Viola Concerto.

As far as piano concertos go, this could be the king for me. An exceptional masterpiece greatly performed here.

Now playing:
Sibelius Symphony No.5 (original 1915 version)
