Hi Jacqueline and Elizabeth,

Thanks for your replies. I think that the description Jacqueline gave
sounds closer to the format of the program I saw, in terms of the order
of events, wherein Richard was chatting and being interviewed, and also
played in duet with piano, then was shown recording in-studio and
critically listening to his playing and striving for the perfect nuance
and of tonality which he wanted to achieve. And yes, the program
wrapped-up with him playing (fabulously) lead part with an orchestra.
(I'm don't recall whether Andre Previn hosted, though... possibly so.)

Your input is Definitely appreciated, Elizabeth, as I now have another
program featuring Richard Stoltzman to be on the lookout for! <grin>
Your account of being right there up-close to see/hear him play makes
me envious! (I say good-naturedly ;-)

Thank you both!
