Don Satz on the Gramophone: >What a magazine! There's so much to absorb from it. After spending a whole adolescence not even knowing Gramophone existed, (I thought Stereo Review was an embarrassment of riches...), you can imagine how much I currently appreciate its existence. However, I'm not particularly thrilled by the new format: it looks like a web page. I also don't like the bold-print blurbs before each review--I don't need to know that "Beethoven's 7th is his bestest symphony after the 5th," (an exaggeration, of course, but close), in order to be compelled to read on. That's what the other mags are for. The space would be far more useful to me if it contained comments on whose cat-gut string audibly popped in the latest HIP performance of VW's 5th Symphony.:) John Smyth
