I'm the executive producer of the CD, and I don't disagree with any of
Don Satz's statements--but he could have pointed out that in view of the
wretched sound of 1/2 of the set, the retail price is "2 for 1"!!  NB:
after we issued the set, Harold Schonberg told us he & several friends
had the Town Hall recital in better sound, from a different source...
Too late!  Season's Greetings
