CSO night

Friday night we went to the Colorado Symphony at Boettcher Hall. We heard Ann Meyers on the violin play Massenet's Meditation for Thaiis and John Corigliano's The Red Violin. This was really, really good. The music was scored for the film The Red Violin. Also, we had the cheap seats behind the orchestra. These are my favorite because we're close and can see the conductors face (Peter Oundjan). His facial expressions told a story and interpreted things way beyond the music. He was worth the price of admission. After the intermission we heard Bruckner's Symphony No. 4. Zzzzzz.
