Utterly fantastic Beethoven violin concerto last night with Lisa Batiashvili, young violinist from (former Soviet) Georgia at Alice Tully in NYC.

Second half was LvB's "Eroica" symphony--where merely changed everything in Western music, as Haydn said. Here's Lisa talking about the concerto. "Time stops...it comes from heaven."
