First of all, Dan, I am glad you are okay. The fact is, I was in the hospital
at the same time, for a flare-up of hydrocephallus (water on the brain). I am
getting better every day, and I think my haircut is really cool!

Anyway, enough tooting my own horn (no pun intended). I wonder if anyone knows,
in light of Robert Marcellus's recent passing, if the Cleveland Orchestra is
planning to release any of Marcellus's other solo or enesmble performances with
the orchestra. Kent Nygren's interview from a few years ago mentions the
Copland concerto, Schubert octet, and the Shepherd on the Rock, among others.

Also, if anyone knows of any recordings from late in RM's career that have not
been mentioned, please post them. So far, I know only of the Romeo and Juliet
under Pierre Boulez, and a Sibelius 4/En Saga that was on the list last
weekend.

Well, off to class. Have a great day, and thanks!

Greg Baker
