It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

That's the way I feel about Celibidache's B-Minor Mass (Munich)

That's the way I feel about Celibidache's B-Minor Mass (Munich). It sounds like a religious rite rather than a musical performance.

Willcocks could do the same--the first live "Dream of Gerontius" I heard was conducted by Sir David, in Rhode Island, believe it or not. Furthermore, at a summer music camp, he and Richard Marlowe were my kids' vocal coaches... .

I think that Willcocks' greatest achievement on record was his "An Oxford Elegy," the greatest RVW piece that almost nobody has heard.

ATB,

John
