This past weekend performance at the DSO features Hans Graf as conductor and Vadim Repin on violin. Vadim played Mozart's Violin Concerto #5 in A major K 219 "Turkish". It was amazing! The technical skills and musicianship was outstanding. He also played an amazing encore which featured the DSO strings plucking their instruments while he played over them with some unbelievable bow work which at points looked like it was a blur.

Yesterday night was a wonderful performance at the DSO featuring John Williams (the composer) conducting his own works. I have enjoyed his compositions over the years, in particular Liberty Fanfare, The Five Sacred Trees (in particular Tortan movement), and the theme from Seven Years in Tibet, but the most treasured to me is his score for Jurassic Park.
