The performance record compiled by Mr. Ouchi found at:
http://www.wizvax.net/akira/celi/performances/index.html
indicates that although rehearsals took place for the concerts mentioned,
Celi's health forced cancellation of the actual concerts. The performance
record also shows Lupu performing the Schumann Concerto in A Minor
Op. 54 with Celi conducting the Munich Philharmonic on Nov. 28 - Dec.
01, 1988.
