Dear Karl...

Most annoying and cloying thing in this entire interpretation...

----- In and around last 6 bars before the final 34 just before the recap
at the very end...

pum pumpa pum pumpaaaaa pummmmmmm ...yikes..egad I could not believe it...I
was enjoying it so much until that point.

Apparently it has been noticed by alot of people some of the strange things
Szell does...I suppose he may be among the generation influenced by the
Furtwangler thing.

Sincerely
David Dow
