In fact, I sang with him in the college choir. He has a name that sounds like the baritone that sang with us (San Francisco Symphony Chorus in the late-70s, usually with von Stade). Very good looking guy, did opera too. I see there's a Stilwell that has recorded since the early 80s so it must be he. By the way, our chorus has done well on the Grammy's getting one when I was in it (they let us each take a photo with it) and in spite of the fact that I'm not there now ;-) it's gotten nominated for both the Rite of Spring and an Xmas crossover recording this year. >> Schmidt: Book Of The Seven Seals >> Franz Welser-Most, conductor > >That gets my vote.
