Turns out that Weiss is also quite proficient on the Musical Saw, and took send place in the National Musical Saw competition (or something like that). Anyway, Weiss is going to be soloist with the Boston Pops at the Hollywood Bowl on Wednesday, 7/31. The interview revealed that he is considering writing a concerto for Musical Saw. Naturally, he is going to title it The Worst Saw Concerto! Maurice {decvax,sdcrdcf,hplabs,ucbvax}!trwrb!suhre With great restraint, I avoided cross posting to net.music.classical.
