You could hear parts of the audience getting restless during some parts. One guy in the row next to me got up during the music and left the hall, disturbing all those around him who had to move to allow him to get out. I'd been annoyed by him before the concert even started - he was one of those people who are either too stupid or simply unwilling to put their mask on correctly. That he simply got up without a care for the rest of the audience didn't surprise me.

 

But that's the only disturbance I noticed. I could see several smaller children in the audience, and they didn't seem too nonplussed and all stayed for the rest of the concert.

We had to be in the same row

I would like to know how others enjoyed the concerto.

<blasphemy>Honestly, I did not enjoyed it at all. Was trying to find something interesting - but could not find anything.</blasphemy>

Would anybody be interested in ticket for 12 and 13 concerts in Vienna? I'm thinking about canceling my trip since I have some other expenses

[John Williams returns to Vienna! March 12/13 2022]

Does any body here need a ticket? ... they are selling pretty fast. I still can buy 3 more on my subscription so if you have any problems with buying yours, let me know.

@josefsuma Nice pictures with Williams. I'm curious what was the context of you having met him  

Long story short ... hours and hours of waiting  ... and tickets for his all 5 shows in Boston. The best memories that I have .. he even signed me a baton O:)

[John Williams & the Vienna Philharmonic: January 18/19 2020]

I'd wait until you have your Vienna tickets confirmed. This is going to sell out quickly.

 

I know that it will be hard to get them, but as far as I planned London - it is only one big problem for me.

1) We are traveling with kids and we do not want to fly by plane so it means 16 hours in train over Europe to get there.

2) I have ticket for me and my wife, but we did not find out some who would be able look after our kids when we will be at the show.

3) ... there was also a third one, but I can not remeber

Allright, thanks to upcomming concerts of JW in Vienna I am forced to sell my 2 ticket for London gig. Anyone interested?

[John Williams & the Vienna Philharmonic: January 18/19 2020]

I am speachless. So I will definietelly sell my tickets for London and travel to Vienna since it is MUCH more closer.

[Music: The Force Awakens versus The Hobbit Trilogy]

On the other hand, TFA is very fresh, and it feels much less... sparse, and much more intense and focused.

It is more focused. But thats PJ's fault.

If PJ had directed the TFA script it would have been a trilogy and part one would have ended after Jakku!

But the end of the third movie would be much more epic than TFA end.

Well, I do not have an acces to any computer, so I will be able to publish my pictures next week.

[John Williams at Symphony Hall, June 7-12, 2013 (Boston MA)]

Absolutely wonderful evening! I am so glad that I had an opportunity to meet you all and next time I will have to takd with me also my id.

[John Williams at Symphony Hall, June 7-12, 2013 (Boston MA)]

Symphony Hall DEFINITELY doesn't allow video recording. At the 2011 concert I was pulled out of the main hall during the second half and asked if I was recording the concert. I guess one of the musicians saw me taking videos. I had to tell them I wasn't and wouldn't be taking my camera out again and just wanted to enjoy the show.

I am sorry for you. I will take my camera and I'll make some pictures at least.
