In today’s Orange County Register online, I review the Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra and conductor Valery Gergiev performing Tchaikovsky’s Symphonies No. 2 and 5 at Segerstrom Concert Hall on Thursday night.

Any chance you’re seeing the LA Phil & Dudamel do the Tchaikovsky 5th this weekend? It’d be quite cool to read you compare and contrast . . .
Alas and alack, I won’t be able to make it. On the bright side … I won’t have to listen to Tchaikovsky’s 5th again.
