I went off to SFCV to read the various reviews and was surprised to see that Laurette Goldberg died on Sunday. I saw her just two months ago at a concert in Brisbane given by Jacques Ogg. I'm a bit shocked that she's gone.
As for Kosman, he gives me a pain most of the time. He wears his agenda on his sleeve too much for my taste. I disagree with his assessment of the Calder Quartet, and of their performance. I agree only that the first half was perhaps a little quiet, or "understated" as he put it, but not that they had excessive problems with wrong notes.
