Sunday October 10, 2021

Another outstanding evening with the Pittsburgh Symphonic orchestra. (PSO)

The program comprised Beethoven's Egmont,  the "Wings of the  Dream" or (Aile du Songe) by Kaija Saariaho, and Mendelssohn's Scottish symphony. The contemporary piece was composed by the Finnish musician, Kaija Saariaho, (born 1952), and is a concerto for flute and orchestra. It was superbly played by the principal flute of PSA, Lorna McGhee. Beautiful music resembling the flight of a bird.

Sunday, harbored a lot of emotions as I was constantly wrestling with recent developments in my life.
