Home Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Can't comment on Franz Welser-Moest, but...

I heard Barenboim work his way through book one of The Well Tempered Clavier at Carnegie Hall last Saturday. He's another musician whose popularity must remain one of the great imponderables. His tempos wandered aimlessly, driven by the inspiration of some obscure muse whose reasons appealed to neither the heart or mind. An absolutely pointless exercise, as far as I'm concerned. I was there because it was a part of my subscription series. Why the rest of the sold-out audience showed up, I have no idea.
