I remembered it was about this time of year when Arthur died (October 7). I love this Partita, the last movement was used as part of his later, extremely beautiful Serenade Concertant. Here's a page devoted to him from the New England Conservatory.
"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it." Jack Levine: January 3, 1915 – November 8, 2010 LEVEL BILLIONAIRES OUT OF EXISTENCE
