I had heard wind (pun intended) of this wind symphony orchestra performing in town tonight. usually I don't subject myself to these random musical performances in Yuma, AZ but I heard this was supposed to be really good. Once I figured out where they were performing I headed up the hill.
It was in the Lutheran Church around the corner from my parents' house that I have passed a hundred times in my life and never gone in. The building is beautiful and full of lots of white hair. Yep, that's right. I was the youngest one in there but for some reason old people really love me so I knew this was gonna be fun :D
Tonight I experienced the Concordia University Chicago Wind Symphony. They had a beautiful repertoire. Everything from Sousa to Whitacre to Bach. It was wonderful and ended up being a true blessing musically. I'm glad I "subjected" myself to this.
The only thing missing was someone to share it with that appreciates this stuff to the depths that I do.
