Antikolga, recounted the story of meeting Y. Temirkanov and I. Stravinsky in new York.
According to the story Temirkanov,Symphony orchestra of the Leningrad Philharmonic went on tour in NY. And that's orchestra was a rumor that at the rehearsal came Stravinsky. He talked with Temirkanov and asked him if anyone had any vodka. Yes as without vodka musicians,especially in Soviet times on tour?!
Immediately brought vodka. Another guest asked for milk. Brought and milk. Then he asked that poured half a glass of vodka and a second half filled with milk.
And the whole Cup of this mixture he drained it at a gulp.
Then Temirkanov dared to ask why this mixture. That said,what they say he is already old and vodka blood disperses in the body. Why milk? And the milk that was not so painful to the walls of the stomach.
