Larry has helped me recover my reference, which was Stormy Applause:
Making Music in a Worker's State (1989), by Rostislav Dubinsky [Dubinskii],
who was, I believe, first violinist of the Borodin Quartet, as I said.
Now I am going to have to retrieve that book from the library to compare
my memory with the text and with Larry's.
Jim Tobin
