As part of our Valentines Day Fernan decided to buy tickets to the symphony. I have never been to the symphony nor had he, so we were really looking forward to this. Last night we went to the symphony for the first time. Now I was not too sure what to expect, but I have a great deal of love for music and figured it would be something I would really enjoy. Can I just say that I... LOVE IT!! This is so different from listening to classical music, I love how you can feel the emotion in the music and how you can imagine what you want from it. How you can feel the sadness, the excitement, the love etc. in it. I loved watching the musician with there instruments, the conductor, and the mezzo soprano as she sang periodically. I have also wanted to watch an opera and after going to the symphony, it has only made me long to go to an opera even more. The great thing about last nights show was that all the proceeds will be donated to the Walenstein Musical Organization in an effort to rebuild the New Victorian School and music conservatory in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The school was destroyed when the earthquake shook Haiti. http://www.thenewvictorianschool.org/.
