- classical
Although in the last 30 years it was quite unusual for a symphony orchestra to start a concert with works by Bach, 20 years earlier this would not have been surprising at all.

The second half of the Hungarian National ...

Chamber Music, 'Tuned For Grand Hall', Liszt Academy, 5 March
- 5 Mar 2021 7:30 PM

Originally, Tchaikovsky intended to dedicate his work (1874–75) to Nikolai Rubinstein, but his pianist-composer-conductor friend was scathing in his criticism of the piece, thus the dedication is actually to the student and first husband of the daughter (Cosima) of Ferenc Liszt, Hans von Bülow, who debuted the work in Boston in 1875.
The piano concerto took what the composer considered its ...
