Your ideas about the interaction of elements of recital programs are thought provoking. May your tribe thrive long and prosper. Johnathan,

I welcome any opportunity to write about Kurtág; and, in covering yesterday evening's "preview" event for Examiner.com, I laced my text to a couple of hyperlinks to my past blogging about him. http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-5030-SF-Concerts-Examiner~y2009m4d18-Jonathan-Biss-in-concert-and-conversation By the way, was I correct in assuming that you wrote your own "Meet the Artist" statement? Did you post it anywhere on your Web site? As I wrote in my piece, I found it a "refreshing change!"

I'm always delighted to find people who share my enthusiasm for Kurtag, and I've been enjoying going through your earlier articles on him. As for the "Meet the Artist" statement, it was lifted straight from this website's biography, which I did in fact write. I hadn't realized that they used it, but it seems somehow more appropriate to the event than the International Orchestra and Festival directory would have... Hi Stephen,
