Friends,
Here are some site visitor statistics:
According to Google Analytics, from February 7, 2010 (the site launch date) through July 2, 2011...
-- there have been 12,987 visits to this site;
-- these visits have been made by 6,436 different individuals;
-- as regards the countries from which visitors initiated their visit(s), here are the top 10 ranked in terms of the total number of visits made by individuals using IP addresses originating in that country:
COUNTRY # of VISITS
USA: 4,197
Japan: 1,396
UK: 1,255
Germany: 988
Italy: 571
Austria: 433
France: 426
Canada: 378
Russia: 254
Spain: 244
Of course ranking countries in terms of VISITS PER CAPITA to this site -- number of site visits from IP addresses in a given country divided by the population of that country -- would arguably be more meaningful. When countries are ranked in this way Austria is solidly in first place and Germany in second, which is not at all surprising.
Arguably the most surprising fact about the TOTAL NUMBER OF VISITS ranking is that Japan is in second place. This may reflect the impact that Carlos had on the Japanese classical music listening public when he conducted the Bayerisches Staatsorchester and La Scala di Milano in Japan in the 1980s.
To each visitor to date, thank you for your visits, posts, and/or private e-mails. I hope you have enjoyed the site and found it illuminating. I will continue to add new material as it becomes available. Once again, I invite individuals who knew, saw, or worked with Carlos, professionally or personally, to post a tribute to him or their recollections of him in the "Tributes/Experiences" part of the site.
Best wishes,
