Norman, Why the ‘Dreaded Malaysian Philharmonic’?
Not all music lovers live in the UK , Europe or USA. Surely you agree Music is the one thing in life that can & should connect us.
Mind you, Slipped Disc has opened my eyes to the ‘real’ world of music makers. Most informative.
Agree. For those of us who live(d) is Malaysia, then MPO concerts are (were) the best and often only source of live music. Not fantastically run, as we all know. But a lot of good players making the best of a difficult situation.
Simon Cobcroft is a great addition to the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. In two recent concerts he led the section and his solos were perfect. Lovely tone.
How exactly do you decide which recruitment stories to feature? The choice of which recruitments are deemed noteworthy is extremely strange.
