An e-mail re last night’s itunes discussion:

The iTunes revelations have come as a great shock. Do Corner contributors—even a single one—really listen to the Smashing Pumpkins and Will Smith? Good grief!
This is the kind of list I would have expected from a person with even the slightest association with NR:
1. “Leos Janácek: A Recollection,” Andras Schiff
2. “3 Chinese Piano Concertos,” Eileen Huang, Central Philharmonic Orchestra of China
3. “Beethoven: Complete String Quartets,” Quartetto Italiano 4. “Johann Quantz: Flute Concertos,” Sally Jackson, Brandenburg Consort 5. “Gerald Finzi: Choral Works,” Harry Bicket, Finzi Singers
Come on, chaps (and chapettes)! We’re all about standards, remember?
