    @renauda I agree 100%!

    My former teacher studied along side of Martha in Italy under Michelangeli. He considered Martha a good friend and spent quite a bit of time with her and her family. That fact still gives me chills when I think about it. That I was so fortunate to have studied with him.

      Wow!

      Which reminds me did you have a chance to watch that documentary on Martha and her family I linked?

          I imagine you would appreciate it.

          It’s a really well done documentary.

            I have to VPN into Canada to watch it. Not sure I can watch the entire 1.5 hours tonight. I have to get up and drive to Pennsylvania in the morning.

              Rick Beato interviewed this delightful young lady recently. Makes me want to learn bass guitar.

                Best comment: Even the guitar blushed and asked him for his number afterwards.

                    Yunchan Lim The Goldberg Variations Live at Carnegie Hall. I ordered this not realizing that it would come in what is essentially a hardcover 46 page book full of wonderful photos, quotes, and multilingual write-ups about this young pianist.

                    It's a double LP that is expertly mastered with a very good, silent, dark background free of surface noise. Meticulously produced. A little static on rare occasions, but that is easily rectified and is mostly due to the dry nature of this season.

                    I must say that he does an excellent performance of the Goldberg Variations.

                    I have heard just about every recording ever made of the Goldberg Variations and this one definitely stands out as one of the best I have heard.

                            Did you notice the crushed corners of the book? It was delivered that way. I sent photos of it to DECCA and they are replacing it no questions asked. They didn't even ask for me to return this one. I will wait to see if they include a pre-paid return address label before I gift this one to my audiophile buddy.

                              Paul Jacobs played at the local music hall last week. I never heard of Guilmant before.
