Tom 3363 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Very fun news. I wish I lived out east (well, not really, but in this case it would be nice). I would have been blown away had it said Cello Concerto #2. Either way, open with the damn Vienna Fanfare! Michael Grigorowitsch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toillion 91 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Whoa. I convinced my wife we needed to take a trip to Philly last year to see JW. Then I convinced her we needed to go to NYC for the concert in April. Think I can convince her that we need to go back to Philly in 2024?

Tom 3363 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I initially read this as this year. Just another indicated, though, that Williams has no plans to slow down. Anyway, should we start taking bets on whether Williams will have, yet again, revised this thing by next Feb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the revisions, I like the one performed with Ma and the Houston Symphony some years ago. Better opening and stronger ending, in my opinion.
