Tuesday night at the Symphony

Strong Bad

This Tuesday night I'm headed to the Meyerhoff Symphony here in Baltimore for the "Lord of the Rings Symphony". The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra along with the Boys Choir, A female vocalist and some others are presenting Howard Shore's music from LotR.

Even since I saw the BSO perform back in the summer, I was hooked. They nailed the music from the Star Wars Trilogy PERFECT!

Any others out there check out the symphony? I suggest you do if there is one in your area. You won't regret it!

I've seen the Dallas Symphony once since we've been here; they were great, and I'll definitely see them again.
Unfortunately, I missed out on a chance to hear the London Symphony recently; the whole family was sicker than hell.

Although it can get expensive, the symphony is really a great experience. It's live music like no other, and really impressive for those that have never experienced what non-amped instruments can really do. Lots of impact.

The LA Phil is a wonderful orchestra, and the new Disney Hall is very nice. I moved b4 I could experience the new pipe organ, but the hall is really something.

When I was younger I used to frequent the San Francisco Symphony, and now that I'm back I'm going again. A really great orchestra, excellent performances, and they've gotten better in the 4 years I was gone.

I've experiences several orchestras, but the best was the Berlin Philharmonic when it came to Orange County a few years ago w/ Claudio Abbado. Amazing! Musical perfection incarnate.

Hope that LOTR symhony comes to San Fran sometime soon. Happy listening!
