  • I came for the music but I stayed for the video. There's something extremely comical about this. The same cat over and over and over again in different positions, looking always staid. The music's majestic and so out of place. Jesus, this is entertaiment. And then "--and look at my Granite videos. They are full of Granite!" That's where I cracked. Try 'n find the sarcasm.

  • I'm glad that you got the whole Granite thing... :)

  • i dont get the cat...

  • They're pictures... they're to keep viewers entertained. :)

  • Forget the kitty!! This performance is positively superb and doesn't need anything else to go with it!! Six stars, not just five!!!

    The pity is that this performance wasn't, and couldn't be, videorecorded - videotape hadn't even been invented until after Fritz Reiner's departure, while using film would likely have been more expensive than what people would have thought appropriate. Sad, because the Chicago Symphony musicians play "like gods" on this recording!!!! Wonderful music-making!!!
