- I wondered why nobody suggested the incidental music THE TEMPEST;
- the prelude part (op. 109?) is an extraordinary piece of orchestral
- music.
- It's a shame that Horst Stein's interpretation of the tempest (with
- the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande) is no longer available on CD. I
- heard it once broadcasted by an Italian station and was really moved.
