On the Anne-Sophie Mutter concert:

Yes, A-S Mutter's a babe, but did you notice that she has odd frown lines?
They tend to turn her into a Klingon.

Why do I focus on this? Well, I've never been satisfied with TV concert
sound.  Of course, I don't run the TV through my stereo either.  At any
rate, the Berg seemed muddy to me until the chorale, and Mutter's tone
in the Sibelius came across as dry, if not dead.

Is this my rotten set and/or did anyone else have the same impression?
