A cursory Mahler 3 from Zubin Mehta and the IPO
Vishnu Bachani, 8th November
In a work as complex and multifaceted as Mahler’s Third, plumbing the depths of the music is not a trivial task. Mehta and his orchestra shone in moments but not uniformly across the symphony.

Sylvain Gaulhiac
Sylvain Gaulhiac
Sylvain commence l’étude du piano à l’âge de 7 ans. La découverte assez tôt de Debussy et Ravel forge en lui une passion intime pour la musique française qui s’élargira ensuite vers de vastes horizons, telle la musique russe, et notamment Scriabine dont Sylvain est un fervent défenseur. Après un DEM de piano, Sylvain poursuit assidûment la pratique de la musique, sans négliger sa passion pour la littérature et la poésie. Son exigence esthétique l‘oriente également vers les mathématiques. Élève normalien à l’École Normale Supérieure et agrégé de mathématiques, Sylvain poursuit une thèse de géométrie algébrique consacrée à des questions de géométrie anabélienne dans les espaces de Berkovich.
