Never does Josh Kosman appear more brilliant than on the (frequent) occasion when he agrees with me. For his report on the Siegfried Too Far, see http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/1999/06/28/DD94939.DTL (SFGate should really have shorter and simpler filenames!) And, on the rising waves of local jealousy about the possible/impending loss of Michael Tilson Thomas *and* Kent Nagano: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/1999/06/28/DD81005.DTL I am afraid these speculations have a great deal of reality behind them. I'd hate to pay the airfare to keep listening to MTT and Nagano... somewhere else...:( Janos Gereben/SF [log in to unmask]
