  • Thanks very much for posting my story, Norman. Much appreciated!

    Very nice article. I hope Alice Farnham will also come to the States to conduct and teach this and other works. Also, maybe this will begin to dissipate the political nonsense circulating about Gergiev.

  • This is exactly how it should be. Good for Alice, more power to her elbow.
