Type(s): Concert

Comment
- Our third concert in four days, but we couldn't miss this one: it's been a while since we heard a sixth symphony; now we get to hear two! The concert as a whole was pleasant enough, but maybe we were suffering from an overdose. We liked the Shostakovich 6 best (though I still prefer both the 5th and the 10th). The Sæverud was OK. But though Håkon, Joe and Mark all raved about the Execution of Stepan Razin, I was not convinced; there is something about the combination of bass voice and orchestra that I find a bit cloying after a while.
