A Coarsely Coruscating Commentary on Baroque Expression: Yunchan Lim’s ‘Goldberg Variations’ at Wigmore Hall
By Sophia Lambton| Substack@ Above: Yunchan Lim’s take on ‘Aria,’ the opening of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, in a December 2024 concert. Credit: YouTube (Encores for Everyone)Elusive interludes defer familiarity in music – stalling chords or dimming notes to snuff out clichés. Clinching novelties, they spark anticipation. Out of stencils made of signatures and measures, pleasures kindle dreamy mysteries.
Compositions Camouflage in Precious Artefacts: Shiyeon Sung and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Cadogan Hall

Scintillating over plinths, spared souvenirs of history enlist our awe – inspiring gasps and photographs. Scant relics far removed from current hearts, they’re amphoras embraced by phones; crass earbuds near a dodo bone. Alone and contextless they spark no more than momentary fascination.
By Sophia Lambton| Substack@ Above: The Jerusalem Quartet in another performance of Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 4 in D, Op. 83. Credit: International Chamber Players (YouTube). Preeempting eeriness denies expressive bursts in Shostakovich’s fourth string quartet: an opus penned months after Soviet authorities had forced him to denounce his Formalist aesthetic. Self-contradictory like many of the master’s works, it stifles cries, touts lies and cuts off vigour at the bone.
