Hearing Daniel Hope playing the viola in the Brahms songs makes me think he's a much better viola player than fiddler.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, FREDDIE!!!

Did they say what he was doing now, post the Beaux Arts? Concentrating on solo work again? (Sounds as if he's doubling his chamber group options by playing viola too
)
It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world. -

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

I listened to the programme as I was intrigued to learn more about Joseph Joachim. I've got an etching of him signed by the artist William Strang (1859-1921). It shows Joachim with full beard and looking in his late fifties.My life, each morning when I dress, is four and twenty hours less. (J Richardson)Comment

His opening of the Bruch was rhythmically so perverse that I thought he must be playing a pre-Joachim version!
