Exatly in that billing order: I have just come home from the Karamazov/Sting gig here in NYC, and it was EXCELLENT. Karamazov on 3 DOUBLESTRUNG archlutes and an 8course, and Sting on a singlestrung archlute. Dowland, RJohnson in the first half (including the Rossignol duo), Sting and (Miss.delta) RJohnson in the second. IN DARKNESS LET ME DWELL was absolutely eerie, like Mahler. RT
