Tonight, I will say goodbye with the final part from Mahler's Symphony No. 2, Resurrection, directed by Claudio Abbado, with Eteri Gvazava, Soprano, and Anna Larsson, Alto. So beautiful!

One of the first pieces of classical music that I remember from my childhood, Herbert von Karajan and a 17-year-old Evgeny Kissin performing Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1. 1988, Salzburg, Austria

For this lunch break, I chose Arthur Rubinstein playing Saint-Saëns' Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor, Op. 22. This video is from 1975, when he was 88 years old, and while almost blind, this might have been one of his best performances. As a side note, he played this Concerto since 1904, when it was in front of Saint-Saëns. I added the YouTube link for the longer version.

A peaceful morning with Iva Kosić playing El Sueño de la Muñeca by Agustín Barrios Mangoré.

I want to close the day with Yunchan Lim playing Chopin's Variations on “Là ci darem la mano”, Op. 2. And with this, I wish you all a beautiful evening!

My street is quiet right now, with dense fog, and Daniel Barenboim playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata feels just right. It still amazes me that it has over 200 years.

Lunch break with Narciso Yepes and Concierto de Aranjuez.

In Vienna, starting December 20, Thierry Malandain’s Marie Antoinette will have its premiere at Volksoper, with Elena Bottaro as Marie Antoinette and Andrés Garcia Torres as Ludwig XVI.

A good morning starts with joy from the Philharmonic of Munich. Anastasia Kobekina plays Schubert‘s Arpeggione Sonata arranged for Violoncello. Have a wonderful day!

I want to end the day on a peaceful note, so I'll wish you good night with Khatia Buniatišvili playing the second movement of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 23 in A major (K. 488), Adagio. From the Paris Concert at the Eiffel Tower, July 14, 2019.
