Considering the concert as a whole, I feel that Mr. Baldwin was far too severe: certainly the Debussy at least was not "musically unacceptable"--and it was performed after a minimum of rehearsal time. The Brahms, also, was not without merit: the piece is fiendishly difficult, with great rhythmic complexities and breathtaking high divisi passages in the strings which, except for some raggedness, came out with surprisingly good intonation; and the sudden rests, traps for any amateur orchestra, were for once clearly defined--which does not seem to indicate "imprecision" in Mr. Poto. I thought that the Brahms...
Lars Gullin: Baritone Sax (Atlantic). Seven pulsingly rhythmic interpretations of old favorites (Summertime, A Foggy Day) and new numbers (Fedja, composed by rising Swedish Jazzman Gullin himself).

The climax of the year is the tiger hunt, when dogs and men go out to track down young cats and wrestle them into submission.

But male rattlesnakes have the odd custom of "wrestling" together, swaying their heads and bodies with a graceful rhythmic motion. The defeated snake is never bitten or otherwise hurt. Klauber is not sure of the purpose of the wrestling match. He thinks it may have some connection with mating, but admits that the emotions of rattlesnakes are hard to analyze...
