Hi Ms. Judy,
Oh he's around - like an *Eminence Grise* - watching over us like a good shepherd does - protecting us from the wolves that constantly attack our Sanctuary. Fear not!!! Think of the beautiful movement from Mendelsson's "Elijah" - the words being: "He watcheth over Israel, slumbers not nor sleeps*. Seriously, Krummhorn's the man you want with you at the front lines when the chips are down and the odds are against you - Like Henry V leading ten-thousand men into battle at Agincourt against fifty-thousand men and defeating them.
Cheers,
CD![]()

*If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-
*Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."
*Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."

Just finished listening to Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major as played by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli - a classic recording that I have heard many times years ago. For some reason, Ravel has been out of my system for too long...
It is a pleasure to have a big record collection. My favorite way to listen to it for the time being, is planning a concert.
Last night I had Emil Gilels at piano:
And the program was:
Beethoven: two sonatas op 27
Grieg: Lyric pieces
Stravinsky: 3 pieces fra Petruschk
Prokofiev: March from 3 Orange
Prokofiev: Sonata no 7
A fine concert with a quite good XO to finish.![]()
