Really, friends old and new of mine have done this with me ever since
I was very young, so we are talking about a half-century here ;-) Our
enthusiams run amok.  One might say we even 'love' music (which seems
to have upset one among us this week).

This one was long-distance and most of them are, but that's not a
requirement.  Usually it's something unusual one of us wants the other to
hear and in this case it was because I wasn't motivated to buy it myself to
hear it.  I think I will go get the recording at Berkshire Outlet now that
I've heard the first movement.
