From the Editor

In this month’s issue of Music Media Monthly, Steve Dankner reviews biographies of the great (and somewhat controversial) conductor George Szell and also of a building: Carnegie Hall. Anne Shelley offers us a variety of DVD reviews, covering a performance of the Weill/Brecht opera The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny, an appreciation of bass-baritone George London, and a massive New York concert in commemoration of 9/11. Gene Hyde gives us a survey of websites devoted to the great jazz bandleader Count Basie, and yr. humble ed. reviews some recent recordings in the “ambient” category. Welcome and enjoy!
