Are you familiar with him?

Next Saturday Markovick will offer a recital featuring works by Beethoven, Schumann, Schubert and Chopin. How good is he?

Thanks

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

He is awful and a horrible person.

He played in Mexico twice (Tchaik and Grieg, they are two of the worst performances I have ever seen). He likes to make a big show, but his playing is terrible. His curriculum is overhyped, and his connections with the mafia (basically accompaning Vengerov), are either completely made up, or undeserved.

For a good laugh, check out my posts in the audition room, and tell me exactly how terrible they are
