...interesting...

I recently gave a noon-hour concert with a cellist at a church, consisting also of the same program, minus the Prokofiev. Afterwards, I thought "wow, what a program!" - glad, because we were going to do the op. 102 no. 1 instead of the op. 69. [not that the op. 102 isn't any good, of course!]

This concert really does feature an amazing program. A powerful Prokofiev masterpiece, an abstract Beethoven at some of his most joyful, concluded by the epic personal voyage that was the Rachmaninoff. I frankly cannot think of a better, more balanced program for this medium - and for free! Surely a MUST attend, if you can!?

It wasn't at the trinity church on wall street, by chance?
