Janine Jansen is a fabulous violinist. But so is Simone Lamsma. South American concertgoers will get their money’s worth.
Thrombophlebitis in his left arm.
“Cries off tour?” What an odd headline.
I don’t know the details of Janine’s illness but I wonder if more musicians are not revealing that they are dealing with stress injuries? Being a soloist is a tough racket and tours like this probably takes their toll on joints and muscles over time.
Looks like we will never have her down here any soon so heart breaking, I was looking forward this for years. I’m sure this other violinist is good of course but this is not why I paid for.
