my decision, but F. like a good lawyer, was not so sure!. I see no reason for me to be on the board of the foundation. Carly had his reasons for not having me and Rudy Serkin must fight his own battles. Besides, agree with you that Carly seemed tired,
less inclined and willing to give to the school all that is available. That is really all we want! Affectionately Sam 19 December '68" Its not all music- ..politics and money!!! "VANESSA" was a GREAT success at it's NYCO revival this fall. .................$775 |
