Congratulations to all of the musicians of the Oregon Symphony, who have just finished their very first Carnegie Hall concert. Early word has it that the concert was a great success; Alex Ross tweeted “Triumphant Carnegie debut for the Oregon Symphony — best of Spring for Music so far. Eloquent Sylvan, explosive Vaughan Williams.”
David Stabler of The Oregonian has been covering the tour in exhaustive detail: preview of the concert program, departure of orchestra personnel and instruments, arrival in New York, first rehearsal on the Carnegie stage, pre-concert thoughts from music director Carlos Kalmar, concert post-mortem.
Violist Charles Noble writes about what it’s like to rehearse at Carnegie at his blog, NobleViola.
Audio of the concert will be available through NPR after 9pm PST on Thursday.

Digging your brain, Matt. No, don’t bother looking at my blog. You probably wouldn’t be interested. Seriously. Just wanted to tell you that I enjoy yours. Carry on. : D
Well, at the very least, now I know who Richard Armitage is! Thanks for the regard.
