Found:

• Old memories:
• I saw in Lyon in 1995 "La longue nuit du film court" this short film by Luc Moullet: "La cabale des oursins"
• I saw when I was about 15 or 16 years old ... The movie "Julia" (1977). I have been trying to find it for years, I did not remember the title and only vaguely the plot.

• Very old memory: I saw Alexander Swete in Lyon in 1994. For the bis, he played a wonderful piece that was not on the program and I wondered for decades what it was. I found out: Santa Cruz by David Qualey. He played it differently, highlighting clearly the different voices.  I was not able to find a recording by Alexander Swete himself alas.
