One of the best concerts ever by the Fox Cities symphony!
by Lou on 5/3/24Fox Cities PAC - AppletonI have been visiting Appleton for about ten years now to see friends. When we can, we see the FSO concerts. They have been enjoyable but unremarkable, very determined and good efforts, but not too far above “good”. But because of the COVID pandemic, travel problems, and other issues, we have not seen the FSO for two years, even though we knew they hired a new director. So what a surprise and delight when we saw and heard Mahler’s First - The Titan! It was brilliant! The conductor slowed the pace just a little, which I liked, and the musicians responded with such excellence. I love the Titan and its many themes, having heard my hometown Pittsburgh Symphony play so often before, and the FSO did the job masterly! Thank you for a delightful performance.
