2017.2.18. Seattle Symphony with Joshua Bell

2017.2.18. A Slavic concert at Benaroya Hall, Conducted by Ludovic Morlot.
Bedřich Smetana           Dance of the Comedians from The Bartered Bride
Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky  Violin Concerto, with Joshua Bell
Antonín Dvořák            Symphony No. 8 in G major, Op. 88
Excellent concert. Sold out. However, I found Bell a bit of a showoff. He's obviously talented. He plays a Stradivarius, which costed him a little under $4M.

Funny that on Boltbus back to Portland, I met a lady who went to the same concert.
