I have heard good things about "Europe Between the Oceans." I will borrow it some time.

Hi, I noticed a few chess titles in your catalog and thought you might like to check my forum site out- www.ChessForums.org, we have a dedicated section to chess books and recommended reading you may be interested in, thanks, Greg

Thanks for your message. It's good to have you on the Radio 3 Group. I hope that you will contribute from time to time. Happy listening!

Dear Fillpail,

Yes, Radio 3 can play through ITunes. Visit the group page to see how.

Thanks Fillpail, you provide interesting information about your system. But Radio 3 plays anything but war horses all the time. Take a look at the webpage to see the unusual repertory that is played, plus analysis, plus discussions.

Cheers to Broadview Press, then! You two have a gorgeous library, but considering your "real life" occupation(s), that was to be expected. :)

Dear John,

Another reply. I think your distinction between reading about music and playing it falsifies. Jim has many scores and books of music songs which he uses to play with. As has my younger daughter.
