September 16, 2018 at 06:32 PM · Too bad the Conus concerto or Prokofiev No. 1 rarely gets air time at these competitions. It takes a real artist to successfully pull these off! I do congratulate Richard Lin for programming Bruch's Scottish Fantasy. Great courage is required to play this piece well. Perhaps it's one of the reasons why he won.
