Karamazov and Dilettantism! Really fascinating. Is anybody brave
enough to throw an exegesis on the combination? Is Karamazov a
perversely hidden dilettante dressed up in attributes of great
virtuoso or is he an evangelist of true and clean expression, just
the instrument (a bit moded but still not enough) isn't perfect?
Anyway, it's a case strong and human, beside of being a musical one.
Several captions comes to mind on a long distance between master and
hustler. One thing is certain -- he will provoke.

It may well be exactly the case when the truth is depressing; but
wouldn't it, at the same time, leave you feeling elated?
