Wonderful. Thank you for posting.
The opening Serenade is a powerful reminder that there is way more in Tchaikovsky than his greatest hits. Works like his Pathetique are classics for good reasons. But his songs and piano music are another world, a beautiful one, though less well known, except perhaps in Russia.
Well, we look but see nothing, since the camera work doesn’t feature the pianist one single second. Strange way to film a recital…
Exactement.
The pianist is slightly less pleasing to the eye than the singer…but he plays well.
He was only sitting in for Amneris Kakhidze
