Iaian Simons wrote of his wife's perception of the Chandos "Contemporaries of Mozart" title: >She assumes that its' a marketing tool. She's exactly right. For most list members it wouldn't make any difference what the title was, but the general population knows the name "Mozart' and likely never heard of Stamitz, Vanhal, and the rest. Thee's nothing wrong with using a title to enhance the appeal of the product. Chandos does want to maximize its sales, and no harm is done to the musical content. Don Satz [log in to unmask]
