    Indeed, not a good photo of Barenboim at all. Considering Argerich was knocking on death's door with metastatic cancer 30 or more years ago, she looks great.

      He's had health issues over the past year - withdrew from several appearances and resigned some position at the Berlin State Opera Orchestra. He's an interesting guy. I met him back stage with the CSO and shook his hand. His hand is amazing. The right side of his hand was infinitely more developed than most people's. My technician who was the co-chief tech for the Chicago Symphony said Barenboim was one of the most naturally gifted musicians you'd ever meet. I remember one weekend where Barenboim performed or conducted in 5 different programs. He could play almost anything from memory. They had an auction once with the CSO where you could bid on a dinner with Barenboim and the head of the Orchestral Association where they'd come to your house. I bid on that - thinking it was the equivalent of a European vacation without the exhaustion of air travel - but sadly, was outbid - probably by someone who owned an oil company. I don't recall.

        What does that mean?

        Only non-witches get due process.

            It grew 12 inches long and became a foot.

              The side of the hand with the 4th and 5th fingers felt thicker than one might expect. It was very solid, muscular.

                    Looks like a conductor.

                    Education is extremely important.

                      I don't think it is George*.

                      far too young, and thin.

                      *Not the George we all know and love.
                      bach will get the reference

                        Renaud Capuçon

                        Renaud Capuçon (born 27 January 1976) is a French classical violinist. Since late 2016 he has been teaching at the Royal Northern College of Music.

                        He has been in a relationship with journalist Laurence Ferrari since 2008,[9] and they married on 3 July 2009

                        Laurence...

                        "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
