The NY Times loved the L.A Phils' "Tristan" but wishes the NY Phil were up to it.

Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

"The â€œTristan Projectâ€ in New York might have been more modest than its Los Angeles counterpart, but it was an innovative conception of a core work, and weâ€™ll take what we can get. The New York Philharmonicâ€™s nearest efforts have been frothy musical-theater evenings, like â€œMy Fair Ladyâ€ and â€œCandide.â€ That getting a production like this into Avery Fisher Hall requires importing it from across the continent is truly outrageous. But thatâ€™s the state of things, and itâ€™s emblematic of the difference between these two orchestras."
Don't piss on my shoe and tell me it's raining.
