The reference is to Harry Shapiro (on the French horn). Get with it! Just goes to show how your mileage may vary. I couldn't stand to watch Ozawa conduct. Too much mincing around.

natjohnson2007--are you referring to the all maleness of the ensemble? Or some other political intrigue I'm unfamiliar with?? Just curious. I feel the entrance of Seji was the exit of Boston's greatness. (with a tear and a tip of the hat to the incomparable Harold Wright)

When the BSO was a really great band, in a era before music meant more than politics!
