Great Hauser
He's not only a musician but a great entertainer. He plays with passion and displays the versatility of the cello with ease. With his musical selections he wants to bring young people to enjoy the cello and yet keep his classical followers with him. We should be glad he wants to keep music a part of everyone's life.
Refreshing
Overall great and entertaining …trying to breach the gap between classical music and more popular hits with the cello being the lead of the orchestra! Good humor and fun…a little campy at times but kept us entertained !
Gorgeous, but description needed.
Hauser’s concert opened into a hauntingly gorgeous, romantic classical. Much of the concert, however, hinges on Latino covers. As a Latina, I found it engaging— but something that I would have loved to have disclosed in a thematic description to inform my expectations for the performance. Still! Hauser is one hell of a showman and I appreciated his attentiveness to the other talent surrounding him. It was a thoughtful performance that I would go see again.
Not what I expected!
Purchased the ticket to see Hauser 5 months ago. So was looking forward with great anticipation to an evening of classical music on 6 June at Carnegie Hall. Instead I got an hybrid which consisted mainly of latin pop music. Was disappointed! The few classical pieces Hauser played were hauntingly beautifully as usual. Hope he does a purely classical performance in NYC in the near future. I would definitely be there!
Loved the band and visiting artists, not Hauser
I found Hauser’s antics ridiculous and detracted from beauty of the music. Carolyn Campbell was incredible and the band exceptional artists, they carried the show. When Houser started playing laying down on stage it just felt like culmination of a joke; he acted like a bored child, bored of his own music. I drove over an hour to see this and was disappointed though I was delighted to see Carolyn perform.
Disappointed
We bought our tickets 7 months ago and spent 340.00 total. Seats weren’t the best but not that bad either. His performance started off lovely with his musical gift as a cellist For about 20 minutes. Concert total was 90.00, then I felt I was in a Miami sound machine era with his band that came out. They were very good musicians but I had no idea it was going to be like that. Should have done my homework. But about one third of the concert Hauser decided to be funny and stood infront of the drummer was flicking his nose which was very immature and not professional. I thought was he on something? But at the end he picked his nose again twice and wiped it on his shirt. Professional musicians aren’t supposed to act like this but I think he thought he was entertaining. So disappointed .
