REQUEST
Minneapolis, August 6, 2016
Hi Steve,
I always go on a long walk on Friday afternoons and listen to Friday Favorites. It's wonderful.
I want to dedicate my request for Barber's Adagio for Strings to my beloved brother Bart in the Netherlands who is ill and I will ask him, of course, to tune in.
I always think of him, especially during my walks. Barber's Adagio will take on special meaning if we can enjoy it at this time, both listening to your program.
My favorite performance is by the New York Philharmonic under Bernstein. It always moves me to tears.
Thank you very much.
Daniel Prins
PS. If my request for Barber's Adagio won't fit, how about 'Suave Il Vento' from Mozart's ' Cosi Fan Tutte?'
