JSngry Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Cool! Is this the "type" of thing she does, if not exactly regularly, at least on occasion? With her dancing/ballet background, it seems like it might be a natural enough fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With her dancing/ballet background, it seems like it might be a natural enough fit? I have to confess, I don't really know much about her: but yes, I think the dance background would help identify with this piece (original commission was from Ida Rubinstein I think), and also the stage experience. And it certainly does feel natural here. I can imagine her sounding great in something like Stravinsky's Persephone too (a part Rubinstein did in the original performance, I think). 3 hours ago, soulpope said: Great recording.... Seems that way! It's new to me; I picked it up after hearing a fantastic version on the radio from Symphony Hall, Birmingham, the other week. 2 hours ago, soulpope said: LOVE Annie Fischer's Beethoven.
