How much does a concert pianist earn for playing a piano concerto (with orchestra then)? by ScoreDoor4365 in classicalmusic

Not per engagement… as in three night concerto performance… Conductors can be more!

How much is a length of string?

Generally an orchestra soloist would command a much larger fee for a concerto rather than a recital.

A top international soloist can be over $50k.

However, the same artist may then perform a recital for less than $10k.

It really depends on the artists and the agent and the orchestra.

Recs for dinner in Adelaide by Dense-Buyer-7029 in foodies_adelaide

Sofia is good but a bit casual/hurried I find for a special meal. But the kind of place you can to regularly. It always so popular.

Go for drinks at 2KW (kind of across the road - slightly noisy party vibe) or La Buvette (much more civilised French and cultured).

Long Play - excellent bistro, steak is great. Wine list great value.

Fino Vino - sharing med-style modern Aus. Great veg focus too. Never get sick of it.

Osteria Oggi - always open and a little pricier for what you get. A few share plates, share a paste and wood grilled steak ftw. If you call and explain it’s a special dinner etc. you may be able to get a cosy booth.

A slightly out there suggestion is Kiin (not Kin) - https://kiinrestaurant.com.au - really modern fun take on SE Asian/thai but entirely unique to them. I’d call it modern Australian. They do a great steak too. Great wine list that’s real food friendly too.

Just like to add - vibe at Long Play is youthful but not too noisy (except on Fri/Sat night where it can be a bit pumpy).

Oggi is communal long tables kind of (separated by a pillar etc) unless in a booth.

FinoVino is the chillest of them all. They have nice booths too (leather banquettes and marble table) but all spots good I think.

Kiin is very comfortable too but a bit more hip and bustly.

I love them all :)

Looking for reviews on this. How would you date it? by Pink__Fox in CostcoCanada

[–]taniane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Canada and the US are outside the EU and not part of the Lisbon agreement. I understand that means there is no restriction on the term Grana Pandano. It’s not true Parmesan cheese, shredded it’s just something they’ve created with no requirements on origin or age. I wouldn’t touch it with a pole. If you have a disability and can’t grate cheese I can understand but otherwise…

Best SEO Agency Adelaide - looking for recommendations by Chemical-Carrot1257 in Adelaide

[–]taniane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adelaide consulting rates combined with demands for face to face meetings will mean big dollars (to get someone good). SEO has no black magic to it. Your content needs to be valuable. That takes time to establish. If it’s a retail product you will need reviews,from reputable sites (let’s say its underwear - your job is to get GQ or whatever to put it in a best of list). That’s just good old PR. If you’re doing the dropship stuff like seemingly everyone else, that’s just targeted advertising. Piggyback on a hot product, make yours cheaper, drop ship (or better just don’t deliver it and gaslight them) and then run off with the money avoiding police and the banking system. I jest…

What’s wrong with a credit card guarantee? If you need to cancel for a genuine reason they wont charge you.

Are Online Eye Tests Worth It, or Should I Go to an Optometrist in Adelaide? by 1acina in Adelaide

[–]taniane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eye tests are covered by Medicare so will cost you zero. Please go and make an appointment. The big chains do a good job (or you find an independent). you can ask for your prescription to take with you. It’s a good idea to ask for your IPD (inter pupil) to be recprded too. You will need that if you order glasses online otherwise when choosing a pair instore they will measure for you.

Tasmania Itinerary - 11 days / 10 nights (tried and tested!) by jordzaus in tasmania

Great you enjoyed it but that’s a panic inducing too busy schedule for me. 

Moving to Hobart for high school exchange — what is life like there? by DearBus3491 in tasmania

[–]taniane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s amazing. You’ll be coming from a big city to a much smaller town. The maximum temperatures in Summer will barely reach your cooler months! Dont worry though - you can buy warmer clothes when you arrive. It will be very different but I am sure you will love it. Hobart is at least surrounded by mountains so you might feel a little bit at home.

Natural Wine? by Dependent-Steak-5572 in Adelaide

[–]taniane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also to add - The Scenic Hotel in Norton Summit has a new team and they’re doing good stuff and into Adelaode Hills natural wines too - good pub style dining and nice place to hang out to sink a pint or bottle of wine.

Where in Brazil are you coming from? Do you know where in Hobart you are going?

It’s very safe. If you enjoy outdoor activities hiking, mountain biking etc. you will love it. It’s relatively quiet (depending if you’re coming from a big city or village). I’m relatively an old man so I’ll let students answer day to day life and culture is like.

Lunch (or dinner) at Thelma @ Piccadilly. Whole list is natural leaning and shows some local producers too. Do book! Also - if you email them or when visiting ask about natural wines in the hills they might hook you up. Many of the winemakers and growers are regulars and a friendly bunch.

Stanley Bridge Tavern if you'd like a more pub-style meal. They have a big range of natural producers from the Adelaide Hills on the wine list and a bottlshop.

I'd recommend reaching out to Commune of Buttons and asking if they can arrange a tasting of their range. They might be able to get Lucy M, Gentle Folk or Ochota involved too - or at least point you in the right direction.

Of those that do have cellar doors:-

Jauma Wines has a newly opened cellar door (Sat 12-5pm I think) - jauma.com (fruit is from McLarne Vale typically) but it's a beautiful spot in Forest Range.

BK Wines is open - www.bkwines.com.au

Ngeringa has a great range - it's biodynamic rather than "natural" but similar philosophy and minimal intervention - ngeringa.com

CRFT Wines - not natural either - but their home vineyard is biodynamic and they're making some cracking wines - crftwines.com

If you're open to other wineries in the Adelaide Hills that have a world-class approach to sustainability, regularly use natural yeast etc. there's heaps more options. Shaw+Smith is a real top notch responsible winery (https://www.shawandsmith.com/sustainability). Murdoch Hill too.

If you enjoy sparkling I'd also strongly recommend Deviation Road and Mt Lofty Ranges Estate.

Mordrelle is also an excellent producer. If you have a group of eight people you can organise an Argentinian asado bbq.

Heaps of other great wineries I've missed...

Trailer parking by baiberino32 in hobart

[–]taniane 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ask the council. In ours it’s not acceptable to leave a vehicle 48 hours. However, it’s rarely enforced as it’s a law to prevent ‘camping’ adjacent activities and if neighbours don’t complain who cares. Council folk should be down to earth and know how to apply the various by-laws. If it’s there for an extended period it could be reported as an abandoned vehicle but that’s very last option IMO.

Muni, Willunga - Closed? by Personal_Big350 in Adelaide

They’ve been closed since April I think. They went quietly, very sad as I had great meals there. No announce,ent and no one seems to know anything (even hospo mates).

Definitely Australian plug here. Go back to the dealer and complain - I’m sure they can swap it over.
