More Music

We drove to Newark again today for another terrific concert.  This one was Joshua Bell and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields.  I love the chamber orchestra, with fewer strings that allows the woodwinds to stand out.  They played

  • Mendelssohn - A Midsummer Night's Dream Overture
  • Edgar Meyer - Overture for Violin and Orchestra
  • Henryk Wieniawski - Violin Concerto No. 2 - I couldn't have told you I knew this composer but the piece was familiar
  • Beethoven - Symphony No. 6
