Entry: Right From the Beginning Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/right_from_the_beginning#22849 Post contents: @Woody, Yes, I've heard Thielemann twice, once conducting Strauss, the second time Verdi, and I found him quite interesting, very intense. And, yes, he's a throw back to the generation of conductors that preceded him. He seems completely unaffected by most contemporary practices. @pclaudel, wow, I really got a kick out of your humiliating dressing down of the author in question --until I realized the target was yours truly! Please continue to comment. @James, concede nothing! There are perfectly good means to amend the Constitution. I think you might be overestimating the degree to which the 14th amendment ruined culture. I could talk more about this but I'm getting sleepy. Sent at: 2008 10 12
