 The Craft-Webern set has never left my shelves. Likewise the Craft-Berg 2-LP set with the Chamber Concerto, and the LP with the Craft-Beardslee recording of Berg's Altenberg Lieder. Those were the days.

 P.S. Many years later I reviewed Marni Nixon's cabaret act. She was excellent. No Webern though, just the songs, and others like them, she had dubbed for the movies.

I also did an interview with the redoubtable pianist Pearl Kaufman, who played the piano part on the Berg Chamber Concerto recording with Craft and dubbed the piano part for Jack Nicholson on "Five Easy Pieces." She was a good friend of the Stravinskys and had some great stories about them and Craft.
