Sydney International Piano Competition, NOT OT

[David Skolnik]

I'm responding to my own post. How pathetic.  Don't care.  I may end 
up doing a Musslewhite, (reposting every day) reminding / encouraging 
all to take advantage of this incredible gift that comes along only 
every 4 years.  I'm listening right now to the second pianist playing 
on Monday morning, Australian time.  The sound is much better than it 
was 4 years ago.  Don't miss this.
If you must, watch the game  (Boston vs. LA) with the sound off.
