Dear Mr. Hogwood, and the Hogwood-Community:
I am quite excited to see such a new window here inviting anyone who see this site, who have questions and are interested in the information to have their spaces.
Among several updated versions of the web-site, I think I like this one the most. This is strikingly clear, and well managed. The colour themes in the site is really tasteful. Here, as someone who had visited the office and received kind help from the "community", could I suggest you put on the portrait and have a part in the site for the people get to know you? It would be nice to know more from the team, and surely better for the people to know whom to contact while we need help.
Sincerely,
Wei-chin Chen (Taipei)
Andrew Borisoff borisoffaa@mail.ruDear Mr. Christopher Hogwood!
I`m your fan from Russia. I was in your concert in Madrid (february, 2007)and was happy to listen to your performance of Mendelsohn symphony. I was impressed very much by your conducting. There is a intelligent group in Perm State University (Russia) that supports your views on the music and the way of performance. Sorry, the modern musical culture lives in crisis, and we can hear the ancient music only by the recordings. I know any time ago you visited Russia and played the concert, and even now it`s discussed among the Russian musicians. Thank you very much for your great work. I hope you`ll visit Russia more. My intent is to write that the Russians love you.
Sincerely yours,
Andrew Borisoff

Elle Sophocles elle.sophocles@gmail.comDear Mr Hogwood,
I would just like to congratulate you on your excellent contribution to classical music. At the risk of sounding colloquial, keep up the good work.
Barry OBrien barry@grace.orgI am trying to locate a Christmas CD that I lost and I do not have much information to go by. I know the conductor was Christopher Hogwood, it was recorded in a church in England with a chorus and consisted primarily of Christmas songs.
Would love to purchase somewhere if you can help.
Thanks.
Patricia Yeiser Dear Mr. Hogwood:
At the suggestion of your website (I loathe computereese) I read your column in The Guardian (November 2003) about arbitrary shifting of intervals in opera. It reminded me of a section in Dorothy L. Sayers's "Murder Must Advertise": Lord Peter Wimsey is explaining the niceties of language required in the labeling of products, and describes the distinctions among with, from and chiefly, necessary to avoid litigation for libel. Perhaps productions to which directors (and in the USA,union scene-shifters) have taken, if not the hatchet, then the paper cutter, should be advertised thus: "La Clemenza di Tito," with parts by Mozart; "Orlando," from Handel; or " The Cunning Little Vixen," chiefly by Janacek. In any case, I enjoyed your column, which I assume is predominantly by Hogwood.
Yours sincerely, Patricia Yeiser, Syracuse, New York U.S.A.
Add. Chorus on toilets? How extremely tacky and more to the point, not Historically Informed.
Günter Graulich g.graulich@carus-verlag.comDear Mr. Hogwood,
Carus-Verlag is planning a new critical edition of Handel "Saul" HWV 53. We would by most happy, to have you edit this oratorio.
With best regards

This is for my grandson who needs it for his studies.I believe it was produced by Ms Kirby. As expected by a teenager he has given me little time to obtain the DVD. Hoping for a speedy response,Yours Vic St.Denis

Terry Holmes terry.holmes@entuk.co.ukDear Mr Hogwood,
Many thanks to you and Hyperion for making me very happy today. I have waited twenty years for a CD recording of Martinu's lovely Double Concerto for Violin & Piano. It seems that Supraphon never saw fit to re-issue their recording which I owned on LP. No matter now that you have given us this splendid new recording which I hope will win the composer many new friends.
If you ever have some Czech singers at your disposal and the support of an enterprising record label - please, please, please consider another Martinu rarity, the enchanting Cantata 'Kytice ' (Bouquet).
Michael Smith Thank you for restoring the Food Counter archive.
Yours, salivating,
Michael Smith
Michael Smith smith.michael@gmail.comBy the way, I'm truly very fond of Martinu's Double Violin Concerto.
I'd really rather not hear the first half bar of it, however, whenever I come to check Christopher Hogwood's concert itinerary.
