Any it was a great performance.I am deeply grateful to Leila Getz and her team in Vancouver, and to the audience there with me in the hall for their support throughout the day and evening.Hopefully Ms.Miller has now learnt that next time she should just keep her mouth closed, she has already done herself enough damage…I think you should review your definition of terrorism. Yuja Wang is simply amazing from a technical perspective, but her playing is very self-regarding, at times even un-musical. Everything I do on stage is about connecting with people. Wang was not only upset with the incident, but possibly also because this could be a preview of things to come – more delays, more interrogations. I know what you mean, since I’ve hardly ever had anyI believe I have seen Sir Andreas Schiff did it last time one or two seasons ago. It would never be my intention to snub or disengage with an audience. People need perspective.Based on your “logic”, US citizens should be detained anywhere first of all. All too often, people forget that musicians too, are human. Riiiight….But in this case there was no need to explain anything because surely she was going to ‘finish’, and who cares about sunglasses anyway (except Ms.Miller…)?Ms. We are sharing her words describing her experience, and ask that everyone take a step back and try to imagine how they might have handled a similar experience.Wang had reportedly been crying before the concert and wore sunglasses on stage to hide her “visibly red and swollen” eyes.The Vancouver Recital Society issued this statement:We have detected that you are using an adblocking plugin in your browser. But it happened, unexpectedly, hours before a performance and placed in doubt whether she could make her commitment. I agree that this was racial profiling!These guys are not welcoming committees — though it usually seems so, or used to, as I recall from trips from Vancouver to Seattle and back or into New York State and back from the east.
The Canadians were indeed usually very welcoming. She was obviously angry. Instead, fucking Trump lets his people die in the thousands….I’ve been quite badly treated by Canadian Immigration a couple of times (UK passport). Kudos to her for going on with her recital after being given a hard time in airport security just a short time before.Care to elaborate on these “hundreds of thousands of civilians” with unbiased evidence based on empirical research………or is this your usual weekly anti American rant.One must admire her for not cancelling. I felt humiliated and enraged with the manner in which this was handled by personnel. (two wars. I decided that wearing sunglasses was the only way to prevent my distress from being seen, since I wasn’t yet prepared to make a statement about what happened.Heifetz was attacked with an iron rod by an audience member who managed to reach him and hit his hand (which he used to protect his violin). But whatever – enjoy your socialist sh!thole wherever you are. People who actually had contact with others infected are placed in quarantine for two weeks! We all know of many artists, both of the past and modern, who were in the habit of cancelling at the slightest excuse.Indeed! I was then released, giving me very little time to travel to the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts. If she said the magic word, they probably doubled down on her.
In over 50 years of concerts, I have never encountered this behavior.Well done, Mr. Wells, and thank you. They still have no idea how it got to Italy.How about killing 200,000 people in Japan with two bombs in 1945?I guess in both those cases they had ran out of sunglasses.You obviously never went to an Elton John concert or a Roy Orbison concert. I was so upset that I filed a complaint with the airline. When she walked out on stage with sunglasses and a direct approach to the piano, quick bow and immediate performance with no acknowledgement of the audience, I thought it was quirky. 65 CHOPIN: Introduction and Polonaise Brillante in C major Op. Yuja Wang, perhaps the worlds greatest living pianist, thrilled us all last night with a never-to-be-forgotten recital at the UBC Chan Centre here in Vancouver. I don’t mind the fact he doesn’t smile…My recital tour will continue, and I look forward to bringing my program to the audience in San Francisco tonight, and on to New York.The overreaction was solely on the part of the thuggish Canadians. Presented by the Vancouver Recital Society.
All safety measures are taken by airlines and airport authorities to keep safe travelers and themselves from this deadly virus. One person’s entirely subjective reaction.Probably would’ve been best if she’d briefly addressed the audience and explained she was rattled from just going through airport security heck, “And why don’t I start with a piece not on the printed program to get my head back into the music,” before launching into what sounds like a perfectly well-rendered recital?V. My carry-on luggage was opened and contents spilled out on the floor.
I’m glad you are at least setting the record straight.Yuja should’ve cancelled.
