Re: Sergei Nakariakov plays Bach's "Air"

June 4th 2008 at the Harvie Theater, The Banff Center.
ITG 2008 with Sergei Nakariakov:

Concerto in C Major with Flugelhorn Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)
(originally for cello)

Sergei Nakariakov, flugelhorn

First violin: Brinna Brinkerhoff, Leisa Milner, Emily Westell, Lise Boutin, Laura Cheneil
Second violin: Brigit Knecht, Fiona Carnie, Ella Chang, Jessica Tzou
Viola: Dean O'Brien, Patricia Higgins, Lauren Nelson
Cello: Nigel Boehm, Andrea Kleesattel
Bass: Tyler Belluz
Oboe: Ammy Goeser Kolb, Jeremy Curtis

Sergei was so good I simply sat and listened. There was no amplification. He and the strings made love to our ears in natural acoustic. He had to circular breath but did it in such a way that we could not tell, only by the fluidity of the line could we know that he was performing supernaturally. No cheek puffs.

We tore his heart out with applause. He knows he is welcome here.
