Ok, I was originally going to also post Pro reactions last time and stopped myself.


I was at an outdoor concert at Ravinia back in the late 70's featuring the London Symphony Orchestra. They were performing Symphonie Fantastique by Hector Berlioz. In the second movement Jack Brymer was playing that that great little pastoral solo that starts with the echo and ends with a simple, written Dmaj scale. At the top of that last scale, Mr. Brymer tripped up with an incredibly wrong note and rhythm. As I was watching Mr. Brymer with field glasses I clearly saw the great Maurice Murphy (played every trumpet thing you've ever heard in every John Williams score.....yes, Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark) who was seated behind him laughing (silently) like hell. In the audience just a few seats away from me, Larry Combs (principal of the Chicago Symphony at the time) was shaking his head in bemusement and fingering the easy passage with his hands.


Again.....all human.
