TBA is that most wikkid of all rep: “To be announced”
I guess Claire is doing the entire Pletnev arrangement (most people only do the Sugar Plum Fairy)
Are your scores available for download anywhere? The site you mentioned didn’t seem to provide links, which is a pity as it would be fantastic to have a look!
I’ll just try not to embarrass myself too much–definitely looking forward to hearing the Firebird, which should kick some major assio and Mykola plays the hell out of the Moses, just for starters. Should be a great (if long) concert.
Mei-ting’s performances from last year have been posted, I particularly enjoyed his Rosenkavalier transcription, and 1838 version of the Paganini.
