  5. Opera
    Hi! I saw Mozart's Don Giovanni at the Opera house in Oslo the other day. Amazing acoustics, by the way. I don't know much about Opera, but it was one section of the opera where a part of the really stood out to me. This is all I can tell you about it: The orchestra were playing pizzicato...

    In another thread, various posts expressed divergent opinions re contemporary violin soloists. Most comments focused on sound, but I think that there is another factor at work. Hilary Hahn is technically superb and has produced breathtaking performances, but has an impassive facial expression...

    I'm watching the Proms right now. Beethoven's sixth. They're playing it standing up and without sheet music! :eek: It's engaging to watch. The musicians are certainly into it, sometimes swaying to the music, looking at each other and of course able to give the conductor their attention. The...

I found some old recordings of myself -- and forgive me, I know my playing is just awful in these, but I had no formal training! -- and for the life of me I can't figure out what the exact...

  14. Woodwind and Brass
    Hi, there - I started a thread in the strings forum to ask people how they 'got into' playing their instrument. But I love hearing other people's life experiences, so maybe you woodwind and brass players could tell us how you became 'hooked' on playing your instrument, and what sort of music you...

    Ha! I've talked a lot on here about how hard it is to get an electrical transcription of an acoustically recorded 78. Now I've been able to capture it. Here is "Qual volutta trascrorre" from Verdi's I Lombardi. The singers are Enrico Caruso, Frances Alda and Marcel Journet. It was recorded on...
