I'm just hoping the audience didn't pay for this, I loved the pan
across the crowd where they were either giggling or cringing. That
is so hideous it's hilarious!! Good halloween soundtrack material.
Polite applause at the end. Actually, Bart Hopkin in "Musical
instrument Design" cites foam as a potential soundboard material for
it's combination of lightness and stiffness, but it seems to be
lacking in bass response. Robert.

Even though all member of the trio intently they studied the score

choice of phrasing (why chop up those long line into smaller
phrases?). Too much showmanship and not enough value on the big
picture. Their intonation was spot on, but the timing not so
good. And was it just me, or did they totally flub the ending
(perhaps nerves, maybe not enough rehearsing)? I suppose I'm being
too hard on these chaps, it's just that been spoiled lately by
listening to the 'Variations on a squeeky wheel" piece that was
supposedly based on some actual sounds from Mozart's carriage (and
the carriage was less than 5 years old at the time!).
