Very happy for you and Sue.
Wish that I had been there too. ;)

There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.

Thanks-somehow it all came together-I was especially happy for Sue-she chickened out of the performance many years ago! Len :lol:

Len, both of you must have had a wonderful time. But, please tell us who was Lulu and who conducted Berg's great opera?

Mel, Levine was slated to conduct but it was decided he couldn't do both the Lulu and the Tanhauser due to his physical condition. Marlis Petersen was just super! Regards, Len
