That just shows these things work, because I knew Jascha Heifetz's uncle.
He lived near us in Arcadia, California and had an egg ranch. He probably
died around 1958.

What the record is You know, this is how things start. Michele is probably

going to have people coming up to her for the next year saying "I didn't
know Harold Wright was your uncle."

---------------

I don't even want to post (I feel so bad), but will add that while Harold
Wright is not her Uncle at all, she does have a very famous Cousin -
Jascha
Heifetz was Michele's Cousin.

The Williams Concerto is unpublished. She performed it in Belgium at the
1993 ClarFest. It was written for her, and still belongs to her. it is a
really cool work - has themes reminding of his movie music, and is a
modern
work. He does not at all use any direct themes (like the Rochberg
Concerto)
of his, or anyones pieces. Very cool work. Maybe if she permits it I might

be able to put it up on the site (which I will not name).
It is not an easy piece at all.
