Dear RepDiva Karen,
While I continually stand in awe of the breadth of your rep and technical knowledge - and the list of recital closers was among your most impressive - I have to say I love Crumb. Agree wholeheartedly about Carter & Babbitt, but if one has the intestinal fortitude and the patience to really pound out the parts, I have found Crumb's to be transcendant music. Or at least it was when Jan DeGaetani sang him.
Happy New Year!
