Cd NOW isn't from the Old World, but they sent me my copy about 2 weeks
ago.  The problem is that I accumulated a stack of unheard recordings while
I concentrated on Schepkin's WTC; I haven't even unwrapped King Roger yet.

It will be interesting to see whether John or I report on it first and
if our impressions are similar.  But, there's always Steve Schwartz who I
think indicated a desire to get the Rattle version.  Steve, where are you?
