Lorenzo Micheli
Lorenzo
made it down here to the bay area this weekend, and his performance lived up to
every accolade offered by our Portland friends.
What a talent! Effortless
playing with a musical sensibility far beyond his years.
I can't believe he's been playing
for only 13 years, but then again we are seeing (hearing) this more and more in
young players. He made the old war
horses, the Giuliani and Barrios, sound new and refreshing with phrasing, that I
haven't heard from any other player. …I
thought his interpretation of La Catedral was much more interesting than
Williams’, and I thought JW's was great when he played it in SF.
The rest of the program was riveting. He
played, as a second encore, the Allegro from Prelude, Fugue and Allegro
(BWV998). I have to say he got more
Bach out of 6 strings than Galbraith gets out of 10, in my opinion only.
It was amazing. He played the whole piece the next day at an informal master class
at a local cafe.
