Mad Notes



Last night, Weston and I went to the Utah Symphony at Abravanel Hall. On the program:

Claude Debussy ~ La Damoiselle élue
Olivier Messiaen ~ Les Offrandes oubliées
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart ~ Requiem, K. 626

The feature piece was Mozart's Requiem, full and uncut. And it was amazing! We both really loved it!

I was really surprised at how small the symphony was, but it sounded like there were hundreds of people playing instruments. My favorite was Benedictus. Weston's favorite was Dies isreas.
