I find it reassuring that certain members of our group are morally superior to James Levine, but I wonder whether the content of our discussions should be dealing with such judgements, especially resorting to nasty and disgusting name-calling. We may all disagree about specific live performances, particular recordings, or the merits of musical works. This is the first time I have found such negativity about a performer in our group. I hope I am not out of form in stating this. E.
