Exquisite review. I was particularly gratified to read a review of the concert featuring Debussy, Schoenberg, Dvorak, and Elgar that spoke to the merits, rather than dismissing these pieces as "chestnuts," as others have done. I would have liked so much to be there, but it had long been sold out. What you capture so marvelously here is why that was so. Thank you for giving those of us who couldn't be there a glimpse of how wonderful it must have been to attend.

And I, in turn, thank *you* for the feedback, and for affirming one of the reasons I write about music in the first place. It's important to transmit the experience; ideally someone will write or walk up and say, "Man, wish I'd been able to make that one."
