A pair of obvious, not-that-bright conmen at that. The shame will never go away.

Thursday 1/2 @nyphilharmonic.bluesky.social. Split verdict: Fab Moussa—one of my fave new works of recent years, at least on 1st hearing. Fine Berlioz—Leonard great. And then the worst Also Sprach I have ever heard. Trumpets sorely missed principal Chris Martin—lots of missed, split notes. Too bad.

An overwhelming Shostakovich 10 was the highlight of tonight's @nyphilharmonic.bsky.social concert. Low strings and brass are heard more clearly in the new hall compared to the old one, much to the benefit of a big, dramatic, sometimes terrifying work like this one. #ClassicalMusic #Shostakovich

Day three of NYC concert week was another great concert by the Czech Phil. Damn, I love me some Janacek, and hearing his Glagolitic Mass for the first time in person was a thrill. #classicalmusic #YearofCzechMusic

We're on a roll: Another great performance this week. Have admired the Wernicke production since we saw it in 2001, but this cast was absolutely first-rate. Bravi! #Opera #ClassicalMusic

With (I think) two Dvorak Slavonic Dances as orchestral encores, and a glorious rendition of Dvorak's "Going Home" theme as a cello encore, this was a generous evening of Czech music. Can't wait to hear this orchestra again on Thursday. #ClassicalMusic

At Hyde Park, NY, paying tribute to a great leader, and weeping for the state we find ourselves in. God save the Republic.

A lovely flower on a rose bush. The bush is filled with flowers... in Westchester County, NY... on November 24. Not that long ago this would have been an inconceivable sight. The planet is so screwed. #ClimateChange

A superb concert by the Concertgebouw Orch. last night. Really loved the new piece by Ellen Reid. Prokofiev w/Batiashvili and Rachmaninov 2 rocked as well. The Concertgebouw and the @berlinphil.bsky.social at Carnegie in the same week: Un embarras de richesse for music lovers. #ClassicalMusic #NYC

A fabulous concert at Carnegie Hall tonight by the @berlinphil.bsky.social. The Dvorak in particular was a wonder. The precision of the playing was unbelievably good. What a thrill to be there. #classicalmusic

This! It's been a dozen years since we had a real NFL-quality head coach (Love Smith). And it is so frustrating to see our rivals find really bright young coaches while we... don't.

John Adams led the NY Phil tonight. Pärt's Cantus for Britten is gorgeous. Wasn't a huge fan of Smith's Lost Coast—seemed repetitive, particularly the overused pizzicato strings. Copland's Quiet City was lush, and Adams' City Noir was driving, forceful, and spectacularly played. 👍 #classicalmusic

Fine Chicago SO performance last night. CSO is better when Muti returns to conduct: More eye contact between players and conductor, and stronger dynamic contrasts. I'm a Golijov fan, but the Megalopolis Suite was kind of meh; Falla, Chabrier, Verdi, and Donizetti were first rate. #classicalmusic
