"I feel everything in life is just an improvisation." - violinist Filip Pogády

Living the Classical Life: Episode 72
www.livingtheclassicallife.com/
Violinist Filip Pogády, one of LTCL’s very first guests (Episode 4: • Living the Classical L... ), has become a “classical music social media influencer.“ He shares his love for music on a multitude of platforms, from subway stations to Instagram. For him, a few minutes of Bach for the accidental passenger is no less meaningful than playing a recital or posting his daily practice, be it perfecting etudes or Tchaikovsky’s violin concerto in minute-by-minute increments.

[@cadburries]

I second about Hélène Grimaud!

[@hectorayatsochoa5076]

Sorry, other great musician if you can interview: Jordi Savall, a catalan composer. Thanks!!

[@hectorayatsochoa5076]

Mr. Peter Hobbs, thank you very much. Maestro Savall is my compatriot. I listened him in UdG (Universitat de Girona, Catalonia) and he is a sublim musician and a very good person. In my country, Catalonia, there are fantastic intellectuals: Lluís Duch, Raimón Panikkar, Eugenio Trías and, last butnot least, Jordi Savall

Mr. Hobbs’ voice reminds me of Paul Giamatti.

Dear Filip, you are an excellent young violinist who, I hope, fame does not turn you into a commercial objet to become a consumer commodity, as many talented people have done, destroying the cult of their art. You cultivate interpretive art, do not let yourself be carried away by savage capitalism that turns everything into a thing for sale and making money. Then the youth and beauty leave, and only the virtuosity in the execution remains.
