Is Piet Honingh still at the Concertgebouw? He was there in 1966 , when I
shared a tour in the Dutch Student Orchestra (N.S.O.) with him (he played
the Krommer concerto, I played 2nd). I heard he's become pretty active in
the "authentic" manner of playing.

Could the other, French-playing first at the Concertgebouw be George
Pieterson? I saw him some years ago here in Oz, playing in the "Quartet for
the end of Time" by Messiaen, a great performance of a stunning piece.
