Dan:

When you see Bob Levin again plesase give him my regards. I haven't seen
him since Fontainebleau, too many years ago. As I recall he had just done
a paper on the Mozart clarinet works, and reconstructed a Haydn wind piece.

My wife attended the Robert Shaw choral conducting seminar in New York
this year. Bob was a presenter and was very well received.
