Bravissimo! Irving Sarin's astute recollections and precise
memories of legendary conductor Reiner are refreshing,
and give insights into conductor / musician relationships.
As a former student of Sarin's ( late '60s ), it was quite refreshing
to hear my former teacher and mentor reminisce about
Fritz Reiner. I can attest that as a teacher and mentor, Sarin may have been just as demanding with his pupils, as Reiner was with his musicians.
