Kevin Sutton writes: >These kinds of remarks about Mozart often come from people that have >never performed his music. It might appear than Kevin is using the "peformer's edge" here, but I don't think that's his intent. Mozart is perhaps the prime example of music that can sound so simple, yet has great complexity revealed to those who perform it. By the way, MusicWeb International has posted its 2004 Discs of the Year based on reviewer submittals, and the selections from both Kevin and myself are on the site. One thing that amazes me about all the selected discs is that I haven't heard most of them. Classical music has a gigantic history and spending thousands of dollars each year on music only scratches the surface. At any rate, do take a look at the selected discs; my fellow reviewers are very insightful and knowledgeable, even though most of them are British (joke). Don Satz [log in to unmask]
