Who's going?

CBC Radio Two was supposed to broadcast the Thursday performance live, but due to a labour dispute probably won't happen.  *Grumble*  >:(

Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

Yes, the Rach second symphony.  Peter Oundjian conducts.

He was here in los angeles area playing at UCLA not too long ago.  In fact, I think it was last month.  Go see him if you have the chance.  Why not. ;D  This guy is a genius.
