Hey -- lookit that program! Does anyone do an "attendance game" like the guys who broadcast Cubs games on the radio? I say, go low!
Although it's a program I'd love!
testtube: you going this week?
Good guess. The Thursday show was probably the smallest crowd I had ever seen. Less than ½ full and we lost some of those at intermission.

I didn't go, but it's because of looming finals and the fact that I attended three concerts last week (Aimard's Sunday afternoon recital, the CSO on Tuesday, and the Philly Orch. on Wednesday), not the program. Aimard's recital featured works by Kurtag, Eotvos, Ligeti, Reich, Bartok and Nancarrow --- low attendance too, but wonderful enthusiasm from those who attended (I didn't see anyone leave, and the applause was amazingly sincere). That CSO program is postively welcoming in comparison...
I didn't go either, but just because I'm a lump.
Great to hear about the Aimard recital.
testtube, I admire your dedication to getting out and hearing the music!
