On Performance Practice

Dear Leonard Bernstein,

Handel is not Brahms. Just so you know. Thank you for a good laugh, even if it was accompanied by a cringe.

For those who would understand, go find Bernstein's recording of The Messiah from from the 1950s. See if you don't laugh and cringe too.

Oh my gosh. I do hear it. It is just a bit ostentatious, yes?

How are you? Miss you!
