MORE AND MORE OF THIS CRAP: the season opened Tuesday night at - TopicsExpress



          

MORE AND MORE OF THIS CRAP: the season opened Tuesday night at Avery Fisher with a program titled “La Dolce Vita: The Music of Italian Cinema,” a timid, dull and slick evening that has to be counted a wasted opportunity. ..... this “La Dolce Vita” program came across as an eager-to-please gala timed to last exactly 90 minutes so that patrons could get to a formal post-concert dinner at a reasonable hour. The program was carried live on WQXR radio; public television cameras taped the show for later broadcast. And three stars of choice for galas everywhere took part: the soprano Renée Fleming, the violinist Joshua Bell and the pop vocalist Josh Groban. Dont we have already enough of this sort of pap on PBS and other TV? Is there really NO genuine audience for symphonic music without this pandering?
