STARTING WITH THAT BECAUSE ...THAT IS THE NEXT EVENT FOR THELV PHIL AND WE ALL NEED TO MAKE AGRRANGEMENTS FOR THIS SOON 702 749 2000 OR 702 462 2238
FOLLOWING..... AS USUAL RANDOM THOUGHTS AND REACTIONS TO THE PAST.
THIS ARTICLE AN INSPIRATION FOR YOU TO JOIN THE FUTURE...NOW !
OPENING NIGHT WAS SATURDAY...OF COURSE UNFORTUNATELY A ONE NIGHTER.
PRE SHOW LECTURE WITH CONDUCTOR CABRERA AND SOLOIST ANDREW TYSON.
I "HARP" (clever) ON THIS WONDERFUL MUSIC HISTORY LESSON...GETS BETTER WITH EVERY SHOW....LEARN LOTS...THEY TOOK QUESTIONS AND ITS A MORE THAN PERFECT SETUP FOR THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM.
SOME OF THE TALK...ABOUT APPLAUSE DURING MOVEMENTS....CABRERA AND I ON DIFFERENT PAGES HERE...BUT OF COURSE ITS HIS ORCHESTRA....I CONTINUE TO SAVE MY PLAUDITS FOR THE FINALE NOTE !
STILL CAN'T START ON TIME....4 MINUTES LATE...GREAT CROWD.
THIS.... SEASON TWO FOR CABRERA AND HIS FIRST FOR SELECTING THE MUSIC.
WE ALL ARE ALREADY IN LOVE WITH HIM....HIS PASSION...HIS PROFESSIONALISM...HIS REALISM...HIS CREATIVITY AND HIS COMMITTTMENT.
THIS NIGHT OPENED WITH NEW MUSIC...OF ALL THINGS A LIVING COMPOSER...ALWAYS A CHALLENGE ESPECIALLY WITH WHAT WAS TO FOLLOW.
DAN VISCONTI....BREAKDOWN...SHORT ...LOTS OF STRINGS ...NOT BAD...DIFFERENT..ENOUGH SAID....THE BEST YET TO COME..
BEETHOVEN CONCERTO NO 3 IN C MINOR FOR PIANO OPUS 37....STILL NOT SURE WHAT ALL THESE NUMBERS AND LETTERS MEAN BUT I AM LEARNING..
SOLOIST TYSON A 20ISH SHYISH ARTIST DID NOT HOLD BACK ON HIS INTERPRETATION OF THE PIECE...HELPED SET IT UP WITH THE PRESHOW....PLAYED A 30 NOTE ENCORE..LEFT TO A STANDING OVATION AND AFTER INTERMISSION CAME INTO THE AUDIENCE FOR BRAHMS....WHAT A LOVELY REAL PERSON TOUCH...WE SAID HI AND THANK YOU...WHAT A NICE MEETING ...A WONDERFUL FUTURE FOR THIS YOUNG ARTIST.
INTERMISSION...NEVER AN UPPER....
BRAHMS SYMPHONY NO 2 IN D MAJOR OPUS 73....BRAHMS WROTE THIS DURING OUR CIVIL WAR EMPHASIZING AGAIN FRANKI VALLI'S LINE ABOUT ALL THE GREAT MUSIC HAS BEEN WRITTEN...BRAHMS SUFFERING A LIFELONG ENVY OF BEETHOVEN....HE SPENT 13 YEARS ON THIS AND GOT IT RIGHT....INTERPRETTED PERFECTLY BY THE LV PHIL...CABRERA SURPRISINGLY DID NOT USE A BATON....FOR WHATEVER THAT MEANS...I WILL ASK HIM IN OCTOBER...
REMEMBER OCTOBER 24TH...NEXT .......LVEN WILL BE COVERING THIS ONE TOO.
