Who Killed Haydn?

Although it’s old news, it’s worth repeating and sharing once again. Pianist and conductor, Christian Zacharias stopped playing in the middle of Haydn’s Piano Concerto, interrupted by a cell phone ringing for the second time the same concert. In this short video he talks about the impact that such an interruption can have for both performer and listener. Thanks to kleindorf for the link.
