Upcoming Concert: Berlioz

I can hardly believe that we are starting the season up again!  I haven't played an indoor concert in months and hope I remember how.  We rehearse tonight for the first time and I am eager to see all of my South Bend Symphony friends again.Annnnddddd... we're playing Symphonie Fantastique.  By Berlioz.  And I never get tired of that piece.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E6EH1S/ref=as_sl_pc_ss_til?tag=proobo-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ZFQ2K6XJ4LYCFPTA&creativeASIN=B000E6EH1SIt's one of the first pieces that I "discovered" myself, as a high school student.  One of the first CDs I purchased for myself.  One of those that I would stay awake listening to in my room because it was just so thrilling.  And even if it's a little overly melodramatic for me now, my teenage heart still beats a little harder every time the English horn calls mournfully for her love and gets only the rumble of distant thunder in response...I am a sucker for music that tells a story, particularly one of drug-addled hysteria and lost love and scaffolds and guillotines.This will be a great concert.  Saturday night with the South Bend Symphony at the Morris.  Details HERE.
