After AFS one of my favorite sources of entertainment is the Austin Symphony led by Peter Bay. Tonight the program was diverse, historical (they played the same two pieces by Mozart and Luigini they played 100 years ago on Opening Night) and creatively selected. I heard a piece by Respighi PINES OF ROME that was just beautiful! The audience approved. Mr. Perlman played a violin concerto by Bruch and received numerous standing ovations. There was a light show, cupcakes and champagne. Joe Long who with his wife Teresa brought us the gift of Itzhak made a down home Texas speech with a broken microphone! HEB sponsored the concert...what a town!..I soloed this event so was able to have a great seat.
Back to studying lines.
