For the first time after the renovation, I went to a concert again in De Doelen.
It had been renovated so nicely, that I couldn’t resist taking a picture. So did the Italian tourists in front of me.
Before the interval, the Ukrainian performed Rachmaninov’s first piano concerto.
As an encore he also played the incredibly difficult transcription of Mendelssohn’s famokus Wedding March.
After the interval, the Rotterdam Philharmonic performed Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony, conducted by Yannick Nemet-Szeguin (?)
