One conductor friend of mine, Jason Klein, conducts a local orchestra here in the SF Bay Area - the Saratoga Symphony. He loves a lot of the out-of-the-way repertoire (just as many of us on this forum do), and tries to persuade his soloists NOT to play war horses. At one of his concerts I attended years ago, Natasha Paremski played the Scharwenka Concerto No. 1. And last week, I was talking with Theodora Martin-Serbanescu, and she mentioned that she played (or was about to play - can't remember which now) the Scharwenka Concerto No. 4 with Jason and his orchestra. BTW, many of these parts have not been under copyright for quite a while, and are now available on IMSLP. So all that an orchestra like the Saratoga Symphony needs to do is just print them out!

Maybe so. But I've just learned some here consider Tchaikovsky's 2nd piano concerto out-of-the-way repertoire. Others here seem to think music died with Rachmaninoff.
Of course, there's no point in arguing about any of that. Just as there's no point in slamming people for not yet listening to Janine Jansen's Brahms/Bartok recording. Sheesh, Chris, the CD isn't even out yet! It sometimes takes me years! So let's both move on.
Yes - how silly! Everyone knows that music actually died in 1957!
EDIT: I just realized you thought that you were among those in the "JJ looks old" thread (26,000 views and counting!) whom I was "slamming" for not discussing JJ's actual performances on her new recording. Actually I had other folks in mind - we're good. OTOH, just because the album is not out on CD yet doesn't mean people can't listen to the download. ;-)
