Dear List,

I have finally begun developing a proper website dedicated to legacy of
Vincent J. Abato. You can see the early stages at:

http://www.michlinmusic.com/abato

I have added a movement of the Elie Siegmiester's "Clarinet Concerto"
which Mr. Abato recorded with Percy Faith (only one movement was
recorded) as well as an alto saxophone recording of "Oodles of Noodles"
which Mr. Abato himself initially said was not his playing, but through
some detective work (and with the help of Al Gallodoro, the only other
saxophonist to play with Percy Faith at the time), there is about a 90%
certainty it is Mr. Abato's playing. I have also posted the text of my
tribute published in the June 2008 issue of "The Clarinet".

I have hours of audio left to post over the coming months, including
some Brahms, Mozart and some truly historic Creston recordings, as well
as a few pictures. As always, for both this and my Joe Allard Project
website (www.joeallard.org), all contributions are welcome and most
appreciated.

Best wishes,

-Adam
