Re: Joyce Hatto

Trevor,

"The Hatto Incident" (coming soon to paperback) has caused me to wonder how much of this has been going on over the past twenty years of digital recording: a little cadence here, a little high note there (think of it as a musical facelift -- sound engineers advertising in LA Weekly on the same page as "doctors" offering breast implants? A groth industry in music? Imagine the possibilities).

All kidding aside I do remember one of my teachers pulling out his piccolo trumpet for the endings on his very well thought of recording of works for solo cornet. An analog foreshadow?

Cheers, mate
