Highly recommended.

Thanks for that. I am not at all familair with Couperin or Rameau so this might be a good opportunity to get myself into their music.

 

I remember you calling him *ironing board* man

It is usually a spectacular failure when a classical piano player tries to be *cool* and do jazz and swings but Thibaudet's Evans cover isn't bad. Have you heard it?

Love you to join me for the concert and after dinner. Good news is that CSO actually will have a great piano recital programs next season. Hope to catch Perahia this year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kuma,

 

I read someplace that Mr. Tharaud is so rigid that he refuses to keep a piano in his house of fear that he might play it casually so every rehearsal  of his takes place in a hall away from home.

 

Never heard Thibaudet play Bill Evans. Is he any good? My hunch is that Evans could have played Satie better than Thibaudet can do jazz. What do you think?

 

Perahia should definitely be a treat.

Some of the sexiest pop-rock songs ever written?

Still no one has taken the European Jazz crown left behind by Esbjorn Svensson. Wollny is one of the pretenders who might given time. A very accomplished album.

Metheny Kin - a very good album that move closer to his Metheny Group territory but still very much Unity Band at the same time.

 

I saw them last weekend on their US tour in Miami - an excellent show.
