Symphony No. 5

R.I.P. Carlos Ward Yeah, I noticed that when I was grabbing the image from Discogs. Very odd.

Prompted by a remark on this thread: The New York Jazz Quartet - In Concert In Japan (Salvation, 1975)

I think Katchen is at his best with the "thunder and lightning" Brahms. Extroverted & fiery.

Yes. Good call.
