Cool!  Thanks.  Nice program notes, especially in the 1907 program where the
editor realized he was out of space for the whole description of the Wagner
piece and cuts it short by closing with "The coda is long."

The advertisements are also fun, of course.  Even one by the CSO before it
was the CSO.

<G>Well, if you're going to be that way about it. <sarcasm right back at

I have scanned the programs and loaded them on a web site I have access to.
They are rather large files and may take a while to load.  The 1907 program
is the smallest of the 3. Enjoy.

As far as the changing personnel in the horn section, the Symphony was
undergoing a rebuilding.  According to the symphonies web page:

"new and noteworthy musicians" were being recruited during this time period.
