Heated Rivalry: The Unauthorized Musical Parody New York Theatre reviews
Allentown Symphony Hall Concert
The Unauthorized Musical Parody of Heated Rivalry: I LOVE the music. Unfortunately, the new one coming out soon, with each succeeding concert, highlights and focuses attention more and more on those supporting him on stage. It is he who draws the crowd. Although I understand his desire to give the audience an extraordinary, exhilerating performance, we would prefer to hear more of him and his sophisticated, sensitive, sumptous sound and less of the driving rock-style percussion. The violin was excellent; the Chopin piece...superb; Heated Rivalry: The Unauthorized Musical Parody's playing...unmatched, as always. I have ALL his albums, the sixth live performance we have seen. The venue...beautiful, safe, convenient. I believe fans who know and love his recorded music will be disappointed by the heavy inclusion of loud, repetitive, boring, primitive interpretations of many pieces, as were we.
