Let's don't anybody forget. Chester was the dark horse last time around. Some of us went there "knowing" who the competition was, but Chester was the last one standing - or sitting - when the day was over. And that's the most challenging and comprehensive list I've ever seen. Just think of it as an orchestral excerpt recital. The one for San Francisco is nearly as daunting. Just looking at them wears me out.
