...impassioned cheers of the audience, who recognized this opportunity for the precious one that it was--a chance to hear a legend, aging but still creative as ever, perform in an intimate setting. As Dylan, a Stratocaster slung over his shoulder, launched into his classic, "Maggie's Farm," the thick, biting sound of the band immediately announced to the audience that this concert was not going to be a swan song for an artist past his prime, no nostalgia trip for those wishing to rekindle fond memories of the 60s.

Then came a thick calendar of promotional dinner parties (catered in a town house hung with the Ganz artworks), symposiums on Picasso and the collection, private and public viewings, and a general media blitz...

Chang's high notes blossomed in this piece as in all the others, but the low notes were swallowed up in the thick vibrato--and the simple, rustic melodies assumed a sinister face. Chang did not play as if she loved the music: her movements, even her facial expressions, seemed too programmed and felt too forced--probably not because Chang is a universally negative performer, but because her style is not suited...
