GAH-duh.
And some Gade trivia to sweeten the pot: He was a close associate
of Mendelssohn and (if memory serves) was the conductor for the world
premiere of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto. I have a 1993 CD of his
4th & 6th Symphonies on Marco Polo, acquired in 1997; may still be
available, either on that label or as a Naxos re-issue.
You're welcome.
