Home Classical Court

From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

How did you come by your love of classical music?

I grew up listening to my Dad's vintage hi-fi blasting the German war horses (through his immense DIY speakers/Mc tube amp), but a greater influence, most probably, was hearing my Mom's piano playing of Chopin, Beethoven, Scarlatti, Haydn, etc. I vividly recall her complaining of Schumann that he was unplayable because of his lack of definable rhythm. When I was 13, she applied the "cement:" she took me to a music appreciation course at the U of Minnesota: the instructor was charismatic--- and I've never looked back.
