It was Scott Davie's initiative to record the audio CD from which this track came. He is a very fine pianist, with an amazing ability to shape a work, particularly with respect to his sensitive use of rubato. Scott hasn't unfortunately been a household name, possibly because he's not one of those what-about-me pianists. He gave a copy of the CD from which this track came,<i> Lilacs</i>, to Vladimir Ashkenazy. Mr Ashkenazy clearly recognized Scott's talent, and he is booked to perform Tchaikovsky's<i> Manfred</i> Symphony and Rachmaninoff's original version of his Piano Concerto No.4, with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra (SSO) at Sydney Opera House on November 21, 23 and 24.</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">The concerts are already heavily booked, although there are still some tickets available.</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">Here's a link to the SSO's whats on page</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.sydneysymphony.com/calendar/2012/whats_on_by_month/">http://www.sydneysymphony.com/calendar/2012/whats_on_by_month/</a></div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">When the page opens, click under "Events: BY DATE", and select November</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">The concerts featuring Scott are headed, RUSSIAN MASTERS: RACHMANINOFF AND TCHAIKOVSKY.</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">The audio CD,<i> Lilacs</i>, can be purchased through Buywell Classic Music via the following link:</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.buywell.com/cgi-bin/buywellic2/02145.html">http://www.buywell.com/cgi-bin/buywellic2/02145.html</a></div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">Ron O.</div> </div> <div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"><hr align="center" size="2" width="100%"></div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal">At 8:53 PM +0100 4/6/12, David Boyce wrote:</div> </div> <div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> </div> <blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt"> <div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:">Ah,  thank you for posting that Ron!<br> <br> One of my favourite pieces of piano music.
