Another shameful and shameless gig.
You are increasingly sounding like a character from the Old Testament. Fire and brimstone included.
You mean not approving of sexual assault? Ah yes, ethics, how antiquated!
A beautiful country, but still rather poor and corrupt.
This relates to music, how?
The painting is important, but the frame matters, too. Understood?
Most likely not a debut. Dutoit is a globe trekker and has conducted a lot in Eastern Europe, even the local orchestras in his youth.
Whatever. Anyone who hires him at this point knows what they’re getting, both the good and the bad.
Whoever hires him now, it tells us more about the people/ organizations hiring him than it does about the man himself. (And yes, the rest of us get to have an opinion about that.)
