CHAMPION JACKIE DUPREE

    In today’s Arizona Daily Star, Tucson Symphony concertmaster Stephen Moeckel declares his favorite dead musician to be “Jacqueline Dupree.” I assume Moeckel knows who he’s talking about, even if the reporter doesn’t. Hint to arts reporters who are out of their depth: If you haven’t heard of someone, even someone you should have heard of long before you got your assignment, double-check the name before you make a fool of yourself in print.
