Review: Warhorses? Hi Yo, Silver, With Sierra, Grigorian, Radvanovsky, Jagde at Carnegie Hall
by Richard Sasanow - Dec 30, 2025
The program said “Christmas Night Opera” but it didn’t happen till the 27th at Carnegie Hall. The date didn’t matter, with such a grand evening for hearing Puccini, Tchaikovsky, Delibes, Verdi and others with some top voices, including Grigorian, Sierra, Radvanovsky and Jagde seeming to have fun while giving their all.

Review: YUNCHAN LIM STUNS WITH GOLDBERG VARIATIONS at Carnegie Hall
by Peter Danish - May 2, 2025
Yunchan Lim’s performance of Bach’s Goldberg Variations at Carnegie Hall was a masterclass in both technique and emotional depth, showcasing his extraordinary maturity and artistry for such a young performer. From the moment he began, it was clear that Lim was not just playing the piece; he was telling a story. Through his interpretation, he transformed the Goldberg Variations from a set of intricate variations into a profound narrative of a man’s life, from youth to old age.
