During one of the meetings, which took place in a room located in a corridor where P2, the classical music channel is situated, I spotted some old books on a shelf. So, when my colleagues went to get some coffee, I took a closer look and saw that it was The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, printed in 1980.

The entry wasn't long, only eight sentences. The next one, describing the life of Italian violin maker Pressenda , was about three times longer. On the other hand, as I found out before my colleagues returned with their coffee, the entry about John Lennon only consisted of one single sentence...
PS: During another coffee break one of my colleagues played an mp3 file for me on her mobile phone. Turned out it was Elvis related in a way, too. It was a very funny version of Also Sprach Zarathustra, and you can hear it here. I think Elvis would've cried with laughter, I sure did!
