Barcelona concert

Last night´s concert in Barcelona was like another first night because we had a new program (Rachmaninov´s Second Symphony) and a new concerto by our fantastic soloist, Vadim Repin (Sibelius Violin Concerto), with two encores by Repin and one by the Orchestra. The hall was very clear and responsive, a warm sound - perfect for Rachmaninov! It was our second 'modern', wooden hall. Over the last few years there have been many new halls built in Spain with interesting interior designs.

It seems your reputation precedes you..even non-concert goers in Spain know you are about. According to Maria Sola (an MSO Patron) even her cousin in Spain has heard!
Keep up the fabulous work as I know you do.
Cheers to all

Congratulations MSO! Your concert in Castellon was a huge success, judging by the review in The Age, and the Barcelona concert was obviously just as successful. You are great ambassadors for Australia!
