- 2022.01.24 M – Third Eye Blind, Third Eye Blind (1997)
- 2022.01.24 M – Maurice Ravel, La valse, M. 72 · Basque National Orchestra · Robert Trevino
- Alex Ross: Let the Basques’ rip-roaring rendition of Ravel’s “La Valse” stand in for the rest. It explodes with characterful touches: sinister noodling of bass clarinet, slashing cross-rhythms, kitschy swoops of portamento, concussive thuds on the bass drum. At the same time, Trevino maintains irresistible momentum, absorbing each detail into the general crescendo. “La Valse” was composed in the wake of the First World War, and conductors often make a point of enacting a brutal stampede toward catastrophe. Trevino doesn’t skimp on the menace, but he and his musicians keep swinging to the end, dancing into darkness.

- “I often listen to his Ninth Symphony,” I chimed in. Another pretty meaningless statement.
