Benjamin's Tombeau de Ravel

I would like to be in touch over the phone with someone who considers themselves extremely knowledgeable with Benjamin's Tombeau de Ravel. Hopefully someone who worked on the piece with Gervase DePeyer.

After my college professor, Dan Sparks (Lawrence U.) studied with DePeyer in London, DePeyer came to Lawrence in 1973 and I played in a master class with him followed by three months of study with him in the fall of 1974. I didn't work on Tombeau with DePeyer, but only after I returned to Lawrence. Dan, however, had studied Tombeau with DePeyer and gave me a number of note changes throughout the work that DePeyer had given to him.

I have an original Boosey & Hawkes edition, with 8-10 notes throughout changed per Dan/DePeyer's recommendation. I'd be curious to discuss those note changes with anyone who knows the work and its history. (Benjamin wrote the work for DePeyer.)

Please email me if you'd like to have a discussion over the Internet or over the phone.

Thanks,
George
