Powell concerts

[gep]

All I will say to forum members is that, wherever you may be, do try to get to at least one of these events and I promise unequivocally that you won't stand so much as a snowball's chance in Hell of being disappointed for a second; I wish that I could attend all of them myself!

Best,

Alistair

Amusing that you should mention snowballs, it was snowing like 12,000BC that evening...

Mr. Powell, please consider coming to the United States sometime, especially the West Coast! I know you'd get a large turnout here!

There is in fact a chance that might happen in the next year or so.

NB Nikolayev was the piano teacher of Shostakovich, Maria Yudina and
Sofronitsky! He wrote some good piano pieces too. I will play the
Szymanowski in the first Neuhaus-Szymanowski Festival in Kirovograd,
Ukraine, at the end of the month (they both lived in the town at the
beginning of the century).
