No you are not alone. I actually have enjoyed most of the Muti's that I have picked up but I have usually only picked up the ones that have been reccommended. Here's a wild shot in the dark for the NYPO, how about offering the job to Theodore Kuchar? He has a definite interest in American music as we have seen with his recordings for Naxos and it could be seen as a post Cold-War Olive Branch to our former enemies. Of course Kuchar seems to be doing fine without the NYPO but it is a thought. Steve M. (Northern Virginia)
