Strauss Also sprach Zarathustra is the supporting programme - nice! Always a special piece for me. Enjoy! |

Well Jansen & Gergiev were both ill and pulled out of the concert a couple of days before,
so we got Tetzlaff & Mälkki instead ...
Review on the way.

We heard a Chinese orchestra play some western symphonic music. Very good they were, too.

Happy days - just managed to snap up a couple of returns for the sold out concert this Sunday at the Barbican where the divine Ms Mutter will be treating us to her Tchaikovsky ...  |

Salzburg is beautiful. Make sure you see the Mozart Museum and the salt mines.

That sounds fantastic, Jules. I'm just checking if I'm free and will see if tickets are still available.

*Plenty* of tickets left - here's a tip - buy a cheap seat and get 'upgraded' on the day.
If you are in, I will book too ...

Ok, stand by...
Tickets booked! We're in row T, which isn't bad at all. Have to collect the tickets there so will arrange to meet nearer the time.
