Gretchen's post reminded me, has anyone else heard a recording of the
Brahms trio played by (wish I could remember his name). He was a fine piano
player and played violin in the Philadelphia Orchestra but always wanted to play
the horn. So later in life, he took up the horn and got a job playing horn in
the Denver Symphony. On the recording he plays all 3 parts on the Brahms.
It's been many years since I heard it (only once) but I remember it being darn
good!
