| Jim,
"In C" on steroids. It's commonly done with 7 or 8 players but flexible instrumentation allows most anything. The CalArts performance was for 127, I believe, and must have sounded incredible on that stage. Stuart Dempster was in the band, as was Terry Riley.
I might have been listed in the program (as a member of the faculty ensemble " New Millennium Players") but was back in Montreal conducting my new orchestra (terrific) and giving a trumpet theater concert with my kids at McGill. Both were great fun, as "In C" must have been.
I like Louis' music, by the way. He remains a music icon in Holland -- deservedly so.
Back in LA next Tuesday and would love to get together sometime,
