A few weeks ago, Melanie invited me to the Houston Symphony. He also invited George, Andy and Claudia. Thanks to Andy's fantastic ability to get the wrong directions, we got to the symphony late. We did hear Bruckner's 3rd Symphony. Like all Bruckner's symphonies, they are quite long. The orchestra played it really well. It was nice to hear real musicians. This was everyone's (besides me) 1st time going to the symphony and hearing a live orchestra. They really enjoyed the experience of feeling the music come from the stage instead of a speaker at home or a car. We stopped by Starbucks on the way home. Not my choice but I got a brownie anyway. It was a nice orchestral experience.
