I don’t care if a complaint about all the YouTubing was intended:
YOU HAVE COMPLETELY MADE MY EVENING. THANK YOU.

Brava Susan!
That was a beautifully rendered, moving Ave Maria. Brava!
She may look like 2005 Renée, but the honesty in her interpretation is something Renée cannot even conceptualise!

Gualtier M (an alias within an alias), many thanks for the Behrens tribute. I’m teaching a Greer piece this week as fate would have it, and while she makes me insane and perhaps does exaggerate Behrens’ difficulties, I can forgive a Behrens fan much
