I only saw the 2nd half - damned rehearsals are getting in the way of my
life! Laura Flax was the 2nd player - her name was in the credits, but
you'd better have been a speed reader to see it.

Mark Nuccio did a nice job with the Eb part in "Till".

I thought the NYP was a little more ragged around the edges than they
usually are with Masur - maybe because they know he's on the way out?
