Hello all, there was an inquiry about the concert pieces by
Carl Matys & biographical notes about Carl Matys. I provided
that, but have lost the correspondence by error. Please
write again, all pieces are ready since a year or so. Nice
challenging pieces. Also other seven pieces for horn & piano
by
Wendell, "Lied" not "Leid". Lied means song, hymn, story,
air, but Leid means suffering. So the title is often changed
to "Das Lied ohne Ende" instead "Das von der Erde". "Lied
ohne Ende" means "Song without an End". So a typo gives some
nice ironic touch.

But they meant "Jiddish", as there are many elements from
Jiddish folkmusic present in his compositions. And there is
a lot of banality in these works, which cannot be denied.
They were educated the classic way, off course. Every

1. Don't leave your horn in an unattended auto.
2. Don't leave your horn unattended when in a public
place.
3. Don't sit your horn on a chair (during a rehearsal
or concert break).
Treat these rules like firmware to the brain. Prevent
theft of your horn. Prevent your horn from being

Thank you, your comments add some aspects not mentioned in the telecast.
Specially the part about Mahler's excentricities. The show did mention
that many of the players of the VPO at the time either had been hired by
Mahler or were related to VPO members who had been hired by Mahler. Is

I seem to remember a video (I believe it was the Young People's Concert "Who
is Gustav Mahler" which others in the states can get from Netflix) where
Lenny tells that story of "re-introducing" Mahler to the VPO. I believe when

They were never much in fond of Mahlers music as they
suffered when Mahler was the excentric director of the

So we have the F/Bb double today, where nearly everything

But they had their crooks those days.

the crook holder we use is one of those bendy rubbery plastic things simply
bent over into hooks on either end so that it hangs onto the stand and has a
lower "u" shaped bit to hang the crooks on (sounds more complicated than it
is) Photos available if anyone wants.
