I was quite interested as I read this article in the NY Times.
It is about the endeavor of the Curtis Institute of Music to teach the Beethoven String Quartet, Op.95 to everyone in every subject this year. It is an interesting idea...having all students study the same piece. I would be very interested in hearing the outcome of such an endeavor, but time will tell.
I found this review to have a lot of insightful comments about the way in which the Curtis orchestra handled a Beethoven piece transcribed by Mahler. These two people's names carry different ideas entirely, and having them blended would be a unique concert indeed.
