Glinka: Overture to Russlan and Ludmilla
Borodin: Polovtsian Dances from Prince Igor
Orff: Carmina burana
Our conductor today is very young. A small man, fun to watch. Don't know why, he reminds me of Sean Penn in the movie Milk. The chorus is fabulous. The tenor is funny, even though he has only one short piece. I don't remember how many times I've listened to Carmina Burana live (once a ballet) and on my Ipod, it never failed to absorb me.
