I had the wonderful experience of watching Yukiko Takagi perform the Goldberg Variations this afternoon, before going to work. Yukiko and her husband Stephen Drury are absolutely amazing, and I am honored to know both of them. I wouldn’t be able to write a very studied review of her performances, since I’m really not a [...]
