DUDE U HAVE NO IDEA..... It is sooo big if i could describe it...when u step foot on that stage its breath taking take it like an out of body experince its like heaven. I sang there... at the end i cried soo much beacuse being in that place that music echoed off the walls touched me and i never wanted to leave i went back on to the stage 3 times and they had to escort me off it beacuse i didnt want the moment of my life to end for it was dream for me ... Go if u havent been I dare u it rocks
Is anybody else having issues with this playing in HD? I'm getting an error when I attempt to play it, while it seems to run fine in regular definition.
I'm with you. I think John Cage wrote some interesting and probably long-lasting experimental/postmodern music about 15-20 years ago, but now he's just trying to outtrump his own innovations with each successive effort... that's not the point of music, IMO.. innovation is but one aspect of composition, and if you just innovate and do nothing else, it has no point of reference from which to launch itself as different/development. And a waste of the fabulous Brueggergorsman
On the other hand, I thought most of the other pieces were brilliant...particularly the Mason Bates, and I thought the Tchaikovsky was really well-played... Yuja Wang was amazing, as always.
