Oh, so you have.
I seem to have been stubbornly stuck in 7th position since les évènements d'octobre, despite not posting for 3 weeks or so after them. I must have created myself more headway than I'd realised.  Ron's finally catching me up now, though ...

Maybe you ought to do the Dr Who-style reincarnation that I did. There's no chance I'll ever be in the top 10 again!

Maybe you're right Richard. I do like being able to access my back catalogue, as it were, though.

It's a shame that we'll remain forever on tenterhooks about SG's arrest and Isaac Stern's role in liberating him (them?), and for that matter that the question of SG's elusive string quartets will never be resolved, and also for that matter that SG has taken such umbrage at Pim's infamous Message 79, which we note has been removed as requested.
On the other hand the mention of the arrest gave me the opportunity of looking through this excellent thread again, for which many thanks are due to autoharp.
Perhaps we can start it up again, since (a) there are some new members around, (b) any of us might have done something the others didn't know about in the "at least 120 days" (why 120? something to do with de Sade?) since this thread was last posted in, and (c) we might be able to trawl up curious facts which ddin't make it into the light of day first time around.
I once spent a day with David Tudor (OK, it's not poking the Queen with a pudgy 8-year-old finger but it will have to do for now) in Amsterdam. We visited a shop which sold electronic components, then spent most of the rest of the day in an "artists' club" where Mr Tudor seemed to be very well known, before repairing to an Indian restaurant for dinner.

Strange. I happened to read through this thread last night.
Hopefully Sydney Grew will be back on board, but it may be some time before any quartets are teased out of him. I did try.
Meanwhile, for the first piece of mine ever to be performed, the page turner was a youthful Simon Rattle.

I hope Mr Sydney Grew will come back. I like his posts very much.
People don't have to agree with each other on every topic.
I wanted to quit several times, but I am still here. We all have our moments.
Please come back Mr Sydney Grew.

I've never wanted to leave r3ok (though I've left others). |

Ha! For the first concerto I ever performed in public, the conductor was a youthful Simon Rattle.  |

I've looked back a few pages but posts seem to be mostly about peeing. |

Music from James Bond movie can be useful for 10 years old.
Also Associated board has Elephant by Saen-Sans. It suggests the right kind of sound and I fond it useful.
It is grade 3 exam book and there are few other good pieces there.
The boy turn out to be bright and I thought that he was stupid for two years. I was struggling to get him through his exams.
