When you're in the business as long as I have, it's darned near impossible to say what one peak experience was. More likely would be a peak experience of any...
I think one of my most memorable experiences was when I lived in London in 1998 and part of 1999. During that time I played viola in the Wandsworth Symphony,...

I'd have to agree that Mahler #3 comes close. All the Mahlers are wonderful, but there's something special about number 3 because of the women's chorus. It...
I'll pitch in another vote for Mahler 3... except for me I was actually singing the chorus part in London and seated right behind the horns not making any...

I don't know if this work is a transcription of a duetto for double bass and another instrument. However, different from the Gran Duo Concertante, it does not...
