to separate the publicity B.S. from the playing.
Thanks, anyway.

A snippet of this and a snippet of that, but no 'all four movements' even when broadcasting a symphony. You get the second movement then on to something else altogether.
But yes, this seems like quite listenable music, all said.
I was asking about the piano playing, not the repertoire or program.
BTW, the Bach is a complete piece.
I believe the Granados is, too.
Yes, FM radio is sad. Satellite radio does play whole pieces as well as complete operas. Many of the operas are not available commercially.

If the 8 Valses Poéticos by Enrique Granados alone don't put a smile on your face. you're beyond hope!
I've listened to about half of the CD so far and I'm still alive, so there's that. ;-)
If you like the music it's a no brainer.
If so, we should try to meet (literally, instead of virtually!) - send me an e-mail. Also, anyone else here who would like to touch base in the real world let me know - I'm going to try to be there all three days.
and Sunday is a bike ride day.
At my age, a few hours of exercise and I'm DONE for the rest of the day. :-(
Are you REALLY sure you wanna meet too many of the folks who visit here in the 'flesh', as they say?
OK, so who am I to talk?
I've already signed up for RMAF in Denver in October, and that includes three nights in a hotel PLUS airfare to Denver and back.
After 10 years of CES/T.H.E. in Las Vegas you would think one would tire of the stuff, but no.
Hopefully I can wring the car out of my wife's paws for Saturday. If I bring her I'll be lucky to get to stay an hour as she bores of this kind of stuff very easily.
Yes - I know the feeling about trying to get your wife to go. My wife has already flatly refused to attend. I tried to get her interested by saying, "but everybody else there will be looking at you!". Somehow, that doesn't impress her. ;-)
