This past Saturday, March 1st, the Symphony program was once again, a heavenly menu:
Oliver Knussen, Flourish with Fireworks, then Chopin, Piano concerto # 2, Turina and De Falla's Three Cornered Hat - all of it masterly conducted by the outstanding Maestro Miguel Harth-Bedoya.
What a delightful performance in Chopin's 2nd concerto, by Ingrid Fliter! She truly deserved the Gilmore Artist Award she got in 2006. Ingrid lets her soul flow through her fingers into the piano keys, and she takes us on an imaginary journey of romanticism and love fulfilled: Sweetness, depth, strength, deep emotion and the lightness of being! She is simple, strong and unpretentious, an imposing presence in the world of classical music.
Thanks, SLSO, for bringing her to Saint Louis!
