Well not exactly. Mr. King is an early music performer/conductor.
His group performed the Lionel Sawkins edition that was the topic of
discussion (which wasn't directly Finale related either).
Come to think of it, there have been quite a few discussions on the list
not remotely related to Finale (but related to music or performance of
classical music). But then again, I'm sure they disappointed you as well.
As David Fenton has already said, the Sawkins topic was of importance to
many Finale users because of the copyright issues involved.
The arrest of a conductor for morals charges is in no way related to
Finale, Finale users or anything the least tangentially related to
Finale, nor even related to issues of music or performance of classical
music.
I'm glad you are happy it was posted. Me, I take no pleasure in reading
of the legal problems of others.
As to the other tangential discussions, yes, some of them disappointed
me, and I took no part in them. But none were posted for purely
prurient reasons.
How does knowing of his arrest help any of us be better musicians,
better engravers, better scholars of copyright issues, better
conductors, better people, better anything?
There is absolutely no connection between those charges and the
performance of classical music or to anything musical at all.
