Good Friday circa 1955-56 I headed out
from the Rue Vavin in Paris where I was staying, crossed the Jardin
de Luxembourg, and headed down the Boulevard Saint-Michel until I
reached the Théâtre du Châtelet where the Colonne orchestra
conducted by Carl Schuricht was playing Wagner's Good Friday music,
and Bruckner's 7th symphony. This was my first
introduction to the music of Anton Bruckner, and he and I have
remained firm friends ever since (as has my love of Wagner's music).
