[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The point that I made was that this “public” sex with that boy was the most exciting thing Pletnev did during the last good 15-20 years. Even reading about it was more impressionable then Pletnev conducting. [/quote]hahaha,...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: In defense of Mikhail Pletnev in Musical Discussions  9 Replies 
Rape does not require physical assault. Any sexual activity, even consensual, between an adult and a minor is a felony and is called rape in many U.S. states (and in many other countries). The common vernacular is "statutory rape" but in many...

The "age of consent" in Thailand is 15 for both boys and girls. However, the penal code in Thailand specifically outlaws sex between adults and children under the age of 18. In other words, at age 15, boys and girls can legally have sex with othe...

It would be a monumental test of endurance to listen to this complete broadcast. I wish for more concert performances of Myaskovsky's music, broadcast on radio. However, I must try to listen at 10:00 PM. I have never heard the Gostelradio Quartet...

Han-Na Chang won the Rostropovich Cello Competition at age 11 in 1997. Her debut CD was Tchaikovsky and Saint-Saens in 1995 under the baton of Rostropovich. She lived near me, north of NY City. She earned the post of Associate Principal of New York P...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The rumors are that Warner has bought licenses of all Svetlanov's recordings and they are reissuing them now. So far the Myaskovsky set is available only in Europe http://www.amazon.fr/Int%C3%A9grale-Symphonies-Nikola%C3%A...

I'm sure it is the same box set. But what does "released" mean? Let me know if you ever see that set in U.S. stores Romy....

This is the first time I have heard of her performing in the U.S. I knew that she had occasionally played in Europe, and was involved with some project with Abbado in Berlin. But I thought that she only rarely toured outside Russia. I'm not sure wher...

I have not seen it myself, but I have been told that the French box set does include the complete symphonies (27 in all) plus orchestral poems, sinfoniettas, etc. I think that it does NOT include the violin concerto or the cello concerto. This box se...

I think the Chinese music industry will not begin to grow until China enacts and enforces some sort of "copyright" protection. It requires a huge investment in time, equipment, musical talent, and technical expertise to make decent classical recordin...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: Getting Started with Myaskovsky in Musical Discussions  35 Replies 
Myaskovsky always said that his music was grounded in the tradition of Rimsky-Korsakov, Rachmaninoff, and of course, Tchaikovsky, so that is where the beauty and lyrical portions of his music derived from. But he was part of the avant-garde movement ...

Romy, there is a project to reissue all of Svetlanov's recordings. Eventually, I hope, this project will make available the recording of the cello concerto by Natalia Gutman, which IMO is better than any of the recordings by Rostropovich.I do not kno...

I suppose it is appropriate for my first post on this board to be about cello music. Since my wife is a cellist, I have had the opportunity to collect a great deal of cello music recordings -- although unlike Clark, my collection does not include 78s...
