Almost there
by C_C on 1/8/25Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St PetersburgRating: 4 out of 5No doubt the amount of effort and rehearsal is appreciated, however, seemed to me that the orchestra was on a balancing act. Some were late, others out of tune. Suggesting they were still insecure. Even though i didn't want to, my eyes kept going to the conductor's hunchback that was forming because of his high seat and him looking down. I don't want to sound cruel, I understand that performing arts require dedication, sacrifice, and perseverance. I acknowledge and admire that. Perhaps the orchestra received a short notice about performing, and didn't have enough time to synchronize everything. The vibe I received from the conductor was one of ,"ahh... ok".
