That is particularly good.
He is also amazing as the pianist in Beethoven’s Triple Concerto. The opening of the second movement is a thing of beauty! I heard the Beaux Arts Trio playing it live; never to be forgotten.

The first and last movements put me on the edge of sonic overload, but the second…yes.
I have to listen to it again, to see if I agree.
DEVO so good. They are presenting their remastered films next week at the Museum of Modern Art. Tickets go on sale tomorrow and hoping to score a couple.

I’m have pretty eclectic taste in music, with only a few genres I am not generally interested in: hipster ‘bluegrass,’ most modern country, any loud, screaming metal-type, modern R&B (that really isn’t) or neo-soul.
I tend to prefer strong or interesting vocals (more often than not female) over instrumental music, and I care about lyrics.
