A Magnificent Tribute to a Magnificent Bridge.
by Nocheese on 6/12/12Marin Veterans' Memorial Auditorium At Marin Center - San RafaelI'm so glad I saw and heard this new work. It was eloquent and atmospheric, incredibly moving. The preliminary talk by the composer, abetted by the sound effects guy, was most illuminating, and what followed was unforgettable. I've been talking about it ever since. I'm not sure about how well the Beethoven fitted into the evening. After such a fresh new piece of work, it seemed a bit safe and over-familiar.
