> http://bit.ly/a9jhpR As much as I admire Rees and enjoyed reading his book, and as much as I appreciate Willis's accomplishments, it's hard for me to get past the first sentence of this interview: "No woman has ever achieved a higher profile on the French horn than Sarah Willis." That's so wrong, it's hard to know where to begin! Let's start with Helen Kotas -- principal horn, Chicago Symphony, 1941-47. Some list members might know of even earlier examples. We all know of many later ones. --John ****************************** John Edwin Mason, Photography: http://www.JohnEdwinMason.com Charlottesville and Cape Town _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
