We along with Umberto Eco had just returned from the English Festival at Dartington and had driven across Europe – an unforgettable journey in unforgettable company. 2. The photo of the two of us was taken in April, 1993 in Philadelphia. As the Philadelphia Orchestra’s composer in residence, I had programmed Epifanie and Luciano came there to conduct it (Photo ©: Don Springer). 3.
