Yes, this Foote also surprised me. It reminded me of the days when I
was first getting to know music. I remember my Brahms year. I heard one
symphony I liked, and found their were 3 more to get to konw. It's been
exciting to get to know this music performed by the Serafino's. I look
forward to getting to know more of Foote's work. Also, the Serafino's.
Performances worth having in your collection.
Best regards,
Tom Connor
