Concert Reviews, Art Exhibitions and Other Events in the Eternal City. Tuesday, November 18, 2014. Daniil Trifonov in Rome. Sala Sinopoli, Auditorium Parco della Musica – 14 November 2014. Autographed Daniil Trifonov CD. There’s a fearlessness about Daniil Trifonov that is apparent from the very second he steps out on stage. A brisk bow, and it was right down to business with Liszt’s arrangement of Bach’s organ Fantasia and Fugue in G minor. After a short interval, Trifonov was back on stage and already ...

Monday, December 31, 2012. Italian Lucky 13 Horseshoe Postcard. With 2013 very nearly upon us I thought this Italian vintage postcard. Would be an excellent choice to celebrate the New Year. Published by a company indicated only by the simple initials T.E.L. printed on the reverse with no further markings, this uncirculated card was probably issued during the 1960s. Or Gnomes) also seem to appear on New Year's Eve. Cards with alarming regularity! Posted by Deborah Swain. Friday, December 21, 2012. Overla...
