As part of a pre-birthday gift to myself and KW, Kurt thought it would be lovely to take in the symphony!
We'll be enjoying the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in tonight's performance of
- Dvorak's "New World Symphony"
- Brahm's "Variations on a Theme by Haydn"
- a Smetana piece
- Sibeleus' "Finlandia"!!
This will be a big night out in the big city! The downbeat begins at 8pm, so perhaps a little on the late-ish side for the kids, but it think there will be so much excitement, and bright lights, and big people all dressed up.... it will keep them entertained!
I'm looking forward to our night on the town! Pictures, of course, to follow!
