MAHLER 5TH

 

Post-performance ovation at Sunday's concert by the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra. We have a first class orchestra and music director Stéphane Denève led a searing interpretation of Gustav Mahler's Fifth Symphony. I wonder - do conductors ever use hearing protection? My Apple Watch was setting off high decibel warnings up in the balcony.

The lumbar steroid injection went well yesterday. Some improvement Monday afternoon but it takes longer to fully kick in.

And it's supposed to be a gorgeous weekend in Prague.
