TWO PROGRAMS FOR ME

THE COLLEGE OF SOUTHERN NEVADA ORCHESTRA IN CONCERT

YES

ORCHESTRA IN CONCERT AT THE NICHOLAS J HORN THEATRE WEST CHEYENNE CAMPUS NORTH LAS VEGAS.

STARTED RIGHT ON TIME THANK YOU CONDUCTOR HEAD HONCHO CHRISTOPHER DAVIS AND THANK YOU FOR SELECTING 4 VERY INTERESTING PIECES OF MUSIC, WELL PLAYED, THE LAST OF WHICH WAS WALTZ FROM EUGENE ONEGIN BY P I TCHAIKOVSKY, THE WORLDS SECOND GREATEST COMPOSER, JUST GREAT. LOVED IT ALL.

UNFORTUNATELY THERE WAS A BRIEF INTERLUDE WHILE CHORALE SINGERS JOINED THE ORCHESTRA...A PERFECT SPOT TO LEAVE AFTER 31 MINUTES OF LOVELY CLASSICAL MUSIC.

UNLESS THE MILLS BROTHERS REUNITE I WILL NOT BE IN FAVOR OF ANY GROUP SINGING...I KNOW THIS IS SCHOOL STUFF BUT IN PAST YEARS THE ORCHESTRA WAS TOTAL AND SEPARATE AND I BEG FOR A RETURN TO THIS FLOORMATE...THANK YOU

97 A+

TUESDAY NIUGHT CONCERT BAND CONDUCTED BY ONE OF MY HEROES DR RICHARD MCGEE, THE MAN WHO KNOWS ENDLESS MUSIC, PLAYS EVERYTHING AND BRINGS A PERFECT BACKGROUND OF HISTORY TO THESE PROGRAMS.

HE WAS LATE 7 MINUTES ...AWFUL

FIVE PIECES IN THE FIRST HALF LIGHLIGHTED BY JOHN LACLOCHE CLARINET WITH A LOVELY INTERPRETATION OF DIXIELAND CLEBERATION.

INTERMISSION AFTER 30 MINUTES OF MUSIC...WHAT THE HELL GOES ON DURING THIS TIMEOUT, THEY HAVE NO BEER TO SELL AND NOTHING TO PLUG ?

SECOND HALF...FIVE MORE PIECS JUST AS NICE WITH HORNS AND WHISTLES AND MUSIC HISTORY...HIT THE ROAD...FIVE START SHOW.
