The gorgeous Rady Shell in San Diego is almost like a big ear making music, tonight with the San Diego Symphony and Lang Lang!

Note to all composers: write your scores in C. The usual octave transpositions are ok. I spent 6 weeks deciphering the chords in Elektra. After that I decided I’ll not put any conductor colleagues through that unnecessary ordeal with my own scores.

Even with lots of beautiful snow and other airlines flying, @KLM puts safety first. Thank you from Oslo

Great review of Powder Her Face last night!
“Impressive…John Savournin was convincingly out of his mind as a misogynistic judge.” https://t.co/q8N9KDFqHT

Vier **** van NRC! “ Niet alleen de fellatio-aria boeit bij de Nederlandse première de opera ‘Powder Her Face’” #PowderHerFace @Thomasades @phion_orkest @pcarrcomposer @ottotausk

[Nederlandse Reisopera @Reisopera]

De podcast over Powder Her Face staat live: luister naar o.a. @pcarrcomposer @ottotausk @LauraDBohn.
Hoe laat je muziek erotisch klinken? Wie was de 'Dirty Duchess'? Wat maakt deze opera humoristisch, absurd, tragisch? Beluister @ScenesNL podcast:

Conductor @ottotausk took #Mahler’s Sixth Symphony to heart, and gave a tight-knit reading of considerable dramatic reach. With @annathorvalds’s striking ‘Catamorphosis’, this was a very demanding @VSOrchestra season opener, and they should be proud. https://t.co/7a8Ib5Gii8

[Tausk @ottotausk]

So wonderful to have my dear friends Arthur and Lucas Jussen playing Mendelssohn in Vancouver and inspiring us at the VSO School of Music
