BWW Review: CSO Brings Great Joy to Geffen HallJanuary 18, 2016When I'm sitting down to listen to a piece I can name my top 5 favorite recordings of in order with detailed reasons of why they're ranked as such, it's hard to not have certain expectations. It's even difficult to hear something executed brilliantly and accept it as brilliance if you 'want' to hear it a certain way. This performance proved to me even a piece that has been performed for 140 years (and has been a staple of classical rep for all 140 of those years) can still sound fresh and surprise you when presented by wonderfully thoughtful and gifted artists.
