The Berlin Phil posted this video interview on Facebook. When I clicked the YT
video to share it, I got this message:
This video is unlisted. Be considerate and
think twice before sharing.
So I thought twice, and quite a few more times, and I thought
maybe I should just leave it alone. Then I thought, "If I am intrigued
enough by this interview to go to the Digital Concert Hall and pay to see the concert, maybe some
other people would be, too." (I found it most interesting when she talked
about the unusual orchestrations in La Resurrezione and the very operatic tone of this
oratorio. It sure made me
want to go hear the program!)
I also thought, "Why post it if you
don't want people to see it?" and, "I hope I don't get in trouble." Maybe they'd prefer you go directly to the DCH to see the interview. (This is why I just added the link—in two different places.)
But in the
meantime, I can name quite a few people in the blog world who would be really
delighted to see this interview (fellow Haïm-heads, unite!) who may not
regularly visit DCH or follow the BPO on Facebook.
So here she is, Emmanuelle Haïm and her hair (in English, with German subtitles):
I also thought, "I haven't posted anything for a while. I'd better remind the blogosphere that I am still here!"
