Wonderful to hear this after so many years! I was in the Youth Chamber Orchestra that performed this on tour with Lou and his entourage. Amazing to recall the very rich experience of being part of that.

He was born the same day as me May 14, I played him on my radio show at UCSB, he played at our Solstice festival when it first started around 1975 before it changed. He played in the courthouse sunken Gardens and I tried to record it rather crudely. I started thinking of him because the solstice festival is happening next week after a two-year absence. I had a radio show for 12 years called “music of many lands.” From 1974 to 1986, by invitation from the manager
