Carnegie Hall, 8:00 PM
The New York Philharmonic conducted by SEAN DONNELLY
Renee Fleeming, soprano
Itzhak Perlman, violin
CONCERT PROGRAM:
* BIZET: Suite from Carmen
* ORFF: Selections from Carmina Burana
* STRAVINSKY: Rite of Spring
* VIVALDI: Four Seasons
* ROSSINI: William Tell Overture
Each soloist would have an encore....Renee Fleemings encore would be "Manon: Obeissons Quand Leur Voix Appelle, Act 3" and Itzhak Perlmans encore would be "Rimsky-Korsakov: Flight of the Bumblebee"
I'm still thinking about how to program a concert as if it was performed by the Boston Pops....

That would be very cool, maybe we'll hear it in May. It's an excellent piece, it turned me onto Bernstein and reminds me of Williams.Oh yes, Magnificent Seven is a great piece....I heard the Boston Pops perform that last season @ a free concert I attended...

Who did you see perform Morlock?
(Why the highlighted name?)
I saw the Jerusalem Phillharmonics, an absolutely amazing orchestra. I saw Zubin Mehta and Lalo Schifrin there last year too.
