Many thanks for this Karafan! Expert and intelligent musicianship from all departments in this extraordinary orchestra under Minkowski as they listen and respond to Soile Isokoski (staggering to find that she is in her 58th year.)

Did anyone hear Isokoski's recital at the Wigmore Hall last week?

Did anyone hear Isokoski's recital at the Wigmore Hall last week?

I did. I found her voice unbearable. A hectoring, vibrato-laden caterwaul. I had pencilled it in as one to possibly see; glad I didn't go.
