Orion has been identified by numerous cultures. For example, the Egyptians saw it as linked with Osiris. The Sumerians saw a shepherd.

3.) Well I've never been to Mayne Island, but I may have to change that this Good Friday. Look at this: Goldberg Variations in a church to be performed by a string trio! Violin, viola, and cello. Hard to imagine how that would sound, as I'm only familiar with Glenn Gould's solo piano versions.
