During the "In Memoriam" segment of the Emmy awards broadcast, Andre
Previn was represented by a photo of Leonard Slatkin!

Slatkin conducted a terrific performance of the "Ode to Joy" at the 2001 'Last Night of the Proms' in London a few days after the 9/11 attacks.

Back to Andre Previn who also conducted several Proms concerts in London's Royal Albert Hall. Here he is in Rachmaninoff's "The Bells," a four-movement work which requires three soloists - soprano, tenor and baritone. I wonder why Rachmaninoff didn't go the whole hog and include a part for contralto? I also wonder what the Prommers made of Sheila Armstrong's decolletage as she came onto the platform! ...
