  • why so fast?

  • I would shit myself if I was the conductor.

  • I love the brief melody at 4:35 and the huge chord shortly afterwards. Some of the most colourful music Ive ever heard.

  • I sense alot of individuality.. although good.

  • playing wasnt bad, but i get the feeling he's more interested in physical theatrics than musicality...plus the orchestra is a thousand feet away from him, that cant be easy to work with. sweaty conductor ftw

  • Good overall performance! piano flawless; good trumpet and orch;

    keep in mind it's a live performance!

    Congrats to all

    P.s. "maestro lost at 4:42" ?! look better
