Quel dommage! Just as I was ready to hear Mademoiselle D’Gascony, my favorite cut from the Marciac Suite live, it seems I have missed the broadcast again. Luigi you’ve given us the experience of Marciac live and I have missed both occasions. Nonetheless, many thanks for your efforts and sharing with us your time with Wynton et al.
