A new Internet friend shared this gem with me (click for slightly larger):
If you know these pieces (I’m familiar with all but the Howden—anybody know this one?), you know that this is a very impressive program. None of these are filler pieces, and the Mozart and the Ibert strike me as particularly large and challenging.
I like the use of the understated term “instrumentalist” here. And I’m glad that smoking in the recital hall is no longer an issue.
I asked the person who sent me this, a member of Mr. Tootelian’s family, if it would be all right if I shared this with my readers. Mr. Tootelian, now retired, kindly gave his consent.
