In Reply to: RE: Naxos has a wonderful series called "American." A place where Rochberg sups with Rorem.... posted by jdaniel@jps.net on October 31, 2015 at 18:48:33
. . . Here's another chance (since you mentioned Naxos' American Classics series) for me to hawk a composition ("Ford's Theater") by my late father in law (Ernst Bacon):
Speaking of Robert Helps, my wife studied with him for a short time in college and really liked his very physical approach to teaching. (He would apparently do things such as shoving you by the shoulders as you'd be playing!) I remember that we saw a performance (SF Conservatory I believe) where Helps played the piano in the Piano Quartet No. 2 by Faure. The other performers I remember were Bonnie Hampton (cello) and the venerable Felix Galimir (violin). (I don't remember the violist.)

Will check that one out.
If Helps throttled a student today it might become a viral video on youtube and be covered on the O'reilly Factor. He'd be in the pro-Helps camp, of course. : )
I think one year, she got $35. That was the high-water mark! ;-)
