Yesterday night, great event in Hamburg's beautiful "Music Hall":

One of the world's toughest piano concertos: "Rach 3" =>

Sergei Rachmaninoff, 3rd concerto for Piano and grand orchestra d-minor, Op. 30

The piano virtuoso was of course Russian, "heavy weight", Arcadi Volodos, 37 years old
The grand orchestra: Gulbenkian orchestra Lisbon with American director Lawrence Forster.

And in addition:

Antonin Dvo?•??k ( Slavic Dances) and Robert Schumann (Spring Sinfony)

Amazing...people stood on the chairs at the end... ;-)

Bye Fridger

I do agree, this is serious music for heavy-weight performers.
Not for the heart faint.
It's big, fat, thick and I dare say, manly (corones if you get what I mean).
You are lucky to have attended this concert. Been a while since I did not see/hear that kind of performance.
It is like it is early heavy metal with all my respect to Rak :lol:

One of the best musical sounds I've found to accompany Celestia is a free streaming radio station named "SomaFM". You can find it at: http://somafm.com/listen/

It has 11 stations ranging from "space music" to hard techno. The one that I think fits best is called "DroneZone". It is custom designed for cruising space.

I play the station for hours at a time while my students are learning Astronomy during a Celestia educational journey. They like it.

Another source is another streaming radio station called "Live365.com". It has over 1000 radio stations to choose from, including at least 75 that broadcast ethereal, melodic space music or new-age instrumentals For a minimal fee of only $4.95 a month, you can get the music commercial free.

That concert sounds like it would have been a pleasure to attend, Fridger.

I've been waiting for Dutch violinist Andre Rieu to make his way in tour to this area. His concerts seem to be so much fun, those I've seen broadcast on public tv.
