Thank you, Greg.

Unfortunately almost all of us have never met Marcellus and never will. We can only go by what we hear from anecdotes, sometimes 2nd or 3rd hand. It's always interesting to hear the 2 sides; those that benefitted from being with the great man, others who saw a different side. If Marcellus was anything like some of the finest teachers I ever had - I can believe both sides.

On a related note, most of you who've been on the BBoard know that my son's going to be studying with Franklin Cohen this fall at Cleveland Inst. of Music. The stories & letters I received about him were similar - some people highly enjoyed him as a teacher, some think he's an unmitigated tyrant. My son didn't care _what_ people said - he's going there to learn all he can.
