I’ve noticed in recent days that an interview has appeared on YOUTUBE in which Riccardo Chailly is interviewed by one N. Lebrecht.
Who he? I hear you say …..
Anyway …..
The piece lasts for about half an hour.
However, if you wish to view only the four minutes or so in which Riccardo Chailly discusses Karajan, rather than endure the whole, then drag the button up until 10 minutes and 48 seconds.
Naturally at this point Norman is far more concerned with the types of vehicle owned by Karajan and Chailly at the time, rather than with any musical considerations…..
If like me you wonder at the very beginning if the video is being played back at a speed about 50% faster than we're accustomed to in the opening of Brahms 1, then you will see that at about 30 seconds it has been fixed and all is OK for the start of the narrative.
Not sure at all if I should have posted any of this but I suppose at my age I don’t need to be tactful.
