Magnificent Mendelsohn was Magnificent!!!
by MojaveByrd on 8/26/13Hollywood Bowl - HollywoodI love concerts at the Hollywood Bowl and this is one of the best I've ever seen. We sat in an area we never sat in before, on the side just above the first section and I was afraid sitting on the side might skew the music but the sound was wonderful. I heard three of my favorite Mendelsohn works: The Hebrides Overture, The Violin Concerto, and the Scottish Symphony #3. The solist, Roy Chen, was amazing! He is young and energetic. His virtuousity is right up there at the top of the list and I hope to see him perform again. (Especially the Brahms Concerto). Mr. Chen got the standing ovation he deserved.
