I've always found highly inspirational to walk into the monumental cemetery in Milan (where I also played the organ of the crypt for many years), and I think this is the most suitable music to describe its atmosphere. As usual a first class reading by this extraordinary interpreter, which is not only a master player, because she plays the organ as she is directing an orchestra. And that's exactly what is needed to achieve romantic music's aim.
Artists like this lady represent for people like me a consolation and a medicine against the poor and insensible world surrounding us.
