“Uchida’s remarkable approach to the piano is a given. But the way in which Muti and the Orchestra seemed to be breathing as one with her every second of the way had an astonishing effect, and made the audience fully complicit in the magic” (Chicago Sun-Times). Muti, Uchida and the CSO reunite for Mozart’s dark and urgent Piano Concerto No. 20, followed by a divertimento and suites from two of Stravinsky’s brilliant ballet scores, The Fairy's Kiss and The Firebird.

Life is a lot of good luck, coincidence, fate, and faith....
... mostly fate and faith...
... mostly faith.

I like to consider myself balanced. 
secure enough to be vulnerable, 
strong enough to be gentle, 
wise enough to be humble, 
and powerful enough to serve others.
