On what you do base your conviction that she will be, later, be declared an anti-Semite by these OTHERS?

Shall we get into a bit lighter direction?
Saying stuff you can't back up with facts is a dangerous road. She might, she might not. Innocent till proven guilty.
I don't like what she's saying and how she's saying it. I am not in her situation though but she being a PROFESSIONAL artist mixing her PROFESSIONAL pr channel with her PERSONAL, dirty, fight doesn't seem very professional.

Nonetheless I think she should be able to play when and where she wants.

I posted the following on the Lisitsa/TSO thread in the Pianist Corner :

It is interesting to note that while the TSO cancelled Ms. Lisitsa'a performance, her scheduled performance with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra has not been cancelled. Indeed, the director of artistic planning of the CPO, Heather Slater, is quoted as follows : "Whether or not one agrees with Ms. Lisitsa's political views, at this time at the CPO, our agreement with her is as a guest artist, to perform Rachmainoff's Second Piano Concerto with our orchestra in June."

I guess the key words here are "... at this time."

Regards,


BruceD

I explicitly capitalized and made in italics that I FEEL.

But I would not try to silence her just because I just felt like that, without actually KNOWING that she really IS like that. Why would they try to slience her?

And not by yourself, either.

The very title of this thread was treading on dangerous ground to begin with.

Let this be a moderator warning... if we can't shift the mood of this thread more in the direction of music than politics, it will be locked.

No code, no hidden hand.
According to this, they are "Torontonians" and "We" as mentioned by Mr.Melanson.

Well, I guess I was wrong about trying to salvage this thread with merely a warning...

Thread locked.

Best regards,

Rick
