Mahler

Last night my dad took me to the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra's performance of Mahler's second symphony ("Resurrection"). It was splendid! Attending a live performance really enhances the music, not only because of the better sound quality but because of all the motion and liveliness of the orchestra. You couldn't have asked for a more animated and entertaining conductor, either. The soprano, seated nearby, was obviously concerned she was going to get whacked in the head with his baton!
