Yes, this Foote also surprised me.  It reminded me of the days when I
was first getting to know music.  I remember my Brahms year.  I heard one
symphony I liked, and found their were 3 more to get to konw.  It's been
exciting to get to know this music performed by the Serafino's.  I look
forward to getting to know more of Foote's work.  Also, the Serafino's.
Performances worth having in your collection.
