恭喜，恭喜。
BPO 在北京也是同一曲目，另外一個晚上是馬勒第九，在紐約是否一樣。

WOW!!實在太令人羨慕!!布魯克納係非常著重細節既Rattle棒下，會係一個點既境界呢...

JSL兄，非常令人羡慕！Berliner Philharmoniker加Bruckner

唔計機票，比起在香港聼VPO平！

Thanks SimpleLife c-hing! It was actually by chance that I decided to stay an extra night in New York during my business trip. I'm very happy about my decision.

I was able to stay up for 99% of the time despite having traveled to 6 cities in 4 days   Very rewarding experience indeed

It was the very last ticket available so I didn't realize the price until I got the receipt   But I'm glad I bought it because I would have just fallen asleep in the hotel   

Btw, VPO will be playing in the same hall on March 4

I worked in NYC for two years, never had any chance to watch broadway shows or listen to concert So I'm very grateful for the opportunity to re-experience the art scene of NYC, even if it's just for one night

J兄，
謝謝。也謝謝你的支持。
相信馬二會很精彩，這是R的拿手好戲，Fink也是上佳的Mezzo。
上次BPO在北京我只是聽到馬九，B9就錯過了。
一位指揮要能三首難度高的第九掌握好不是容易之事。我們期待R能夠達到這水平。
