How Come You Never Go There

How Come You Never Go There (Beck Remix)

My first performance of the Mozart concerto with orchestra in May, 1981, age 22, with the Curtis Symphony, Carmit Zori, concertmaster, conducted by William Smith just before I joined the Montreal Symphony.  I was playing my 10,000 series Heckel with with slightly faster vibrato than I use now!  Cadenzas by Bernard Garfield who came to the concert that night.  Concert recorded by my father on his Nagra (which explains why all the applause is recorded!); my parents had driven 3000 miles from northern BC to hear this performance, then they drove back again.
