They should've boosted the AC.

There'd be no shortage of volunteers to lick the sweat off her

I don't know her, but she's too annoyingly overcompensating for my taste,
but, I'm guessing, that's what the new "classical" paradigm is these days.

I know what you mean but I'm 1) stupidly horny for her 2) know too little about violin playing to judge whether the extraversion indeed indicates something she needs to "overcompensate" for, i.e. not being good enough. Seems to me that she's great tbh.

Normally this kind of thing annoys me among younger pianists.

This is what, too often, goes for classical performance - unnatural exuberance.
That’s what I mean about “overcompensating.” They can no longer just be extra
proficient at what they do, they have to be entertainers first and foremost and
pretty much look like fools on stage. I can’t watch crap like that.
Actually, I’ve long gone not being able to listen to it either.
If I’m ever forced to do such a thing, I can pretend I’m at some kind of
Fluxus performance or watching a Python sketch (often the same thing).

I was looking online about her and no wonder she had to cancel some
upcoming concerts a few years back due to tendinitis!

jadis 04-01-2022 05:42 PM

Yeah classical concerts today are, with rare exceptions, a sad pantomime

Re tendinitis though, it's more surprising to me when violinists don't get it. Physically it's such a punishing instrument... Dunno if it has anything to do with economy of gesture and lack thereof, probably does.

When you're trained to be a flamboyant catgut scraper, it has its downsides.
(talk about rushin' "modernism"!)

This is just awesome. I love what she does with a flute and with all the other things

The tea cups, such a nice touch
