Concert #3



Don's orchestra is currently playing "A Soldier's Tale" (Stravinsky), and I went to see them play the night before last. The concert was in a modern art museum in a small town about an hour and a half away. The piece is narrated, telling the story of a soldier returning home from war who meets the devil and is swindled out of his violin. The musicians did an excellent job, as did the narrator, a very well-known Danish opera singer. (But the trombone playing was the best.)

He DID!!! He kicked butt right across the street and back! With his slide! But seriously...when does this guy NOT kick butt, I ask you?
