<div dir="ltr">I was too young to remember the day when GG passed away...I was only eight months old. I came upon GG from reading a biography on Leopold Stokowski while I was in high school. In the biography, there was a picture of Stokowski with GG as they were rehearsing for Beethoven's 5th Concerto, and I was really fascinated by his attractiveness. I went to the library and borrowed two LPs of GG: Beethoven Op. 10 sonatas, and Beethoven Concerto No. 2 and Bach No. 1 with Bernstein (both Columbia Masterworks OOP) and was just blown away by the clarity of his playing.<div><br></div><div>I started reading books on or by GG. Sometime in 1997, Peter Ostwald released a book about his POV on GG's psychological diagnosis. So I was actually at a U of South Florida library new release section when I saw that GG had actually passed away many years ago.</div><div><br></div><div>DJWP</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Oct 4, 2014 at 2:26 PM, maryellen jensen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:maryellenjensen28@hotmail.com" target="_blank">maryellenjensen28@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
