But no matter; this was charming music, realized with spirit, and it is promising to find Jackson venturing into unrecorded repertory...
...Though nice to have, that winning streak isn't worth a grain of salt when a new season begins," Coach Jack Barnaby constantly points out. "Like the other inexperienced, developing teams in our league," he adds, "Harvard will have to prove itself...
