I've never warmed to the harpsichord (my lack), but you definitely pique my interest here. You may be amused to know I first read this review in an actual hard copy of the Juilliard Journal, which arrived in the mail here, and that it seems we both appear in the issue (though I, needless to say, only in a letter to the editor). Nice to see you at the FOCUS closing concert recently, and, as you know, I look forward to your report!

Thanks, Susan, and I'm sure you're not the only one who hems and haws about harpsichords. (PS, speaking with an early music expert last week, it is clear that one factor is the instruments; there are a lot of mediocre ones running around.)
I'll look forward to seeing your letter. (In my book, getting one printed means the editors think you have something to say - not a surprise!)
