Yes, it's mine.  I meant "IATW" really as a reference to the whole Beatles
oeuvre in its effect on the classical side.  If the author's argument is
true then it would be ironic that it took a bunch of "mop-heads" from the
contemporary pop world to imbue vitality and publicity to a dead Viennese
musical artist.  It's a tribute to Bernstein that he could see genius in
an art form really away from his neck of the woods and use it to further
his passion for getting Mahler out to a wider public.
