"Not every wonderful thing is a big hit right away. Beethoven's EMPEROR #PianoConcerto, for instance, now acknowledged as one of the most difficult & most brilliant works ever written for the instrument, was greeted with a yawn when it first came out." Barbara Cawthorne Crafton

No yawning & lots of clapping 👏 👏 at tonight's wonderful concert.
