Welcome back ICEMAN to podium!!
F1第4戦のバーレーンGPはベッテルが今期初優勝。2年ぶりにF1復帰のライコネンが2位で今週末は嬉しすぎ!F1でもラリーでもスノーレースでも、なんでもこなせるスピード感はやっぱり天才、11番手からスタートして1周目で7位まで追い上げ、バトンもアロンソも追い抜いて24周目には2位、33周目にはベッテルと0.917秒差に、優勝台でのがぶ飲みもきっと近い!
今期は第2戦マレーシアで改善の余地ありのマシーンでアロンソも優勝、次回スペインGPでもクレバーな走りでティフォシの期待にどれだけ応えられるか?今期はライコネン、アロンソ、ベッテルと真の天才ドライバーの接戦が面白い。

お雛祭り
今日は20年来のお友達と日本橋の「ゆかり」で女子会、一人はお医者様の奥様になられ元町からひっさびさの上京で数年ぶりの再会。仕事もプライベートも、良いこともシンドイことも、それぞれにいっぱいあったはず、でもそうやってみんな輝きを増していると思う。そう言えば、彼女はPCに貼っていた"お店持つなら銀座"のステッカーに相違ない美人、その後医学療法士を目指してSFに留学。あの頃は春になると彼女が靖国神社のテキ屋さん担当で場所を確保、みんなでお花見をしたっけ。外人の混じる我々グループはちょびっと目を引き、スイスの銀行勤めと言うと「あ~、あのゴルゴ13の」と?!
ネイルも手足ともに春のお姫仕様、お作はやっぱりesNail谷口さん。

見たい映画がいっぱい。でも迷ったら封切、でっ、リチャード・ギアの”顔のないスパイ”を見た。映画館直前で、「あっ、そうだっ、彼の映画はとてつもなくつまんないことがある、それも単館上映、配給会社どこなんだろ、はずしたな」と悪い予感いっぱい...いやぁ、予想外にめっちゃ面白かった。良質のエスピオナージュをノンストップで読み切った感じでおススメ。

Charlie Siem
Charlie Siem is one of the UK’s brightest new classical stars. Charlie began to play the violin at the prodigious age of three, after hearing a performance of Beethoven’s Violin Concerto by the late Yehudi Menuhin and is fortunate to have been loaned a violin much beloved by Menuhin – his 1735 Guarneri del Gesu d’Egville – now owned by the Elderberry Foundation.
Charlie was educated at Eton College and read music at Girton College, Cambridge. He furthered his violin studies with tutors from The Guildhall School of Music and The Royal College of Music – being taught by Ithzak Rashkovsky and Shlomo Mintz.
Charlie is a respected player with a prolific touring history who has appeared with orchestras around the world. His festival appearances include St Moritz, Gstaad, Spoleto and Windsor and orchestras include the Royal Philharmonic, London Mozart Players, Israel Camerata and the Bergen Philharmonic. In 2008 Charlie toured the UK with the Moscow Philharmonic playing Shostakovich’s First Violin Concerto to great critical acclaim.
Throughout 2009 Charlie’s reputation as one of the brightest new classical artistes grew with prestigious concerts in Paris, London, Oslo, Bergen and Basel. Charlie’s versatility was further demonstrated by a unique collaboration with the Royal Ballet whose dancers he accompanied on a tour to Cuba.
2010 was a significant year for Charlie with a tour of Bruch and Dvorak Violin Concertos alongside the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, several dates at the Royal Albert Hall and concerts in New York and Tel Aviv all under his belt. Autumn 2010 heralded an even busier time with Charlie headlining in the popular European Night of the Proms concert series alongside artists such as Grace Jones, Boy George and Cliff Richard.
Charlie has a great interest in fashion and is currently the global face of the Alfred Dunhill label, and has continued to appear in many publications including Italian Men’s Vogue (L’Uomo Vogue), photographs of which were taken by the singer Bryan Adams with whom Charlie subsequently appeared in concert. Other endorsements come from revered names such as photographer Mario Testino who says:“Charlie Siem brings a freshness into the world of classical music, with his contemporary look mixed with his mastering of the violin, the combination make for an exciting spectacle.”
Charlie’s talent has been noted in many corners of the world and in June 2011 he serenaded Lady Gaga at her Fashion Icon Award party in New York, introducing him to millions of new fans.

パリ管
今日は久々に本物を聴いた。イケメンDavid Fray2連ちゃん、YouTubeを見て今年イチオシのピアニストかもと...一日目はソロでっ与野くんだりでヴァルトシュタインで締めくくったもののモーツァルトとベートーベンの地味な選曲、端正な演奏にピアノを聴かせるより弾くことが好きなんだなぁと、二日目はPaavo Jävi指揮のパリ管でラベルのPコン。がっ、思いの外、オケとヤルヴィーのコンビが素晴らしい、パリ管は金管がちょっと煩いってイメージだったけど、そのキラキラした輝きと音を作っていく喜びに満ち堂々とした演奏は、まるでガラコンサートのよう、最高の演奏会だった。
そしてちょっと面白かったのは、日程も金額も踏ん切りがつかず出遅れ舞台左袖近くの2列目、右隣のおじ様は芸術家や評論家によくあるテッペンはげて裾はねてる系、ステッチの効いた上等なキャメルの上着を召され...「誰かやろか?」演奏が始まると次に音が鳴る方向にサインを送り、首をチック症のように動かしていて...「マニア?本物?」演奏が終わるとこちらを押し退け舞台袖下で拍手喝采。会場を出てサインの列に並んだら前方におじ様、サインを貰うとスタスタ楽屋へ、奥様らしき方が回りにペコペコと付き添い...会場で貰ったパンフレットの束にそっくりさんを探して鈴木雅明氏かも違うかも。
シューベルトのピアノ曲なんて殆ど聴いたことがなかったけれど、Frayの輸入盤CDが美しい、というよりにっこりサインをされイチコロ。
