Radio Interview-Minnesota Public Radio
on: August 31, 2005, 01:23:00 PM
  From Minneapolis circa 2003; it was 8:30 am, the room was freezing (had to constantly keep my teeth from chattering), and now you get exposed to my dopey voice along with the questionable playing. :-\

Questionable playing? Hardly! I thought the Schumann was beautiful!

I thought that the Schumann was good, but the Scarlatti at the end (was that you?) was WAY to fast for my likng.
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

A world, in short, totally unlike our own.

Yeah you could tell it was cold where you were. That or you were nervous or something.

I think the Koji/Michelangeli speed for that Scarlatti Sonata is perfect.

Only Gilels can get away with playing it slowly.
