The concert this evening was outstanding! The pieces were familiar–a good idea since, I assume, the majority of attendees were not well versed in classical music. I’m thinking this because of the folks who applauded at inappropriate times.
Anyway, the concert took place in the base’s fitness center. The acoustics weren’t too bad. They played two encores.
Here’s what they played:
- Leichte Kavallerie (The Light Cavalry Overture) by Franz von Suppé
- Carmen Suite No. 1 by Georges Bizet
- Prelude
- Aragonaise
- Intermezzo
- Les dragons d’Alcala
- Les Toreadors
- Kaiser Walzer (Emperor’s Waltz) by Johann Strauss
- L’Arlesienne Suite No. 2 by Georges Bizet
- Pastorale
- Intermezzo
- Menuet
- Farandole
- Orpheus in the Underworld (Can-Can) by Jacques Offenbach
- ENCORE: Radetzky March by Johann Strauss
- ENCORE: Variations on a Korean Folk Song by John Barnes Chance
What a great evening!
