“heavily gay”
ic
the bit about da shrapnel sumwut cg
My fave part is Sorabji identify the best pianist of his generation after Ho as a guy who ended up playing night clubs and doing Lib style arrangements.
Very randomly I can’t find any of his playing anywhere in any genre.
ahaha the idea of night club ZNORABJI
tbf my teacher only survived in Paris by playing in jazz clubs
Second listen I like it more!
Heavily gay
Lmao
Btw as far as I know, Horowitz played 12 selected vars of the Brahms Pagaga
Lol imagine hearing the prime Horowitz Liszt Sonata and feeling it’s not “grand manner” enough
