(Can’t help but feel that Denis Matsuev and Franz W-M will make an ill-fitting pairing. One’s a refined musician.)
Vienna Philharmonic tonight at the Konzerthaus: Franz Welser-Möst replaces Valery Gergiev for “health reasons”. Is he poorly or is it Putin- and Ukraine-related? Will Gergiev make the imminent Vienna Phil tour of Germany & the States where demos have been mooted?
I should perhaps explain my disdain of Matsuev’s playing:
