Live Music: Q1 2013

Slow quarter for live music (though I notice that I had quarters in 2009 and 2011 where I also saw only four shows, but still handily exceeded my 26 show annual goal). The symphony performance of Mendelssohn works was marked by tragedy, when the principal oboist, William Bennett, had a stroke during the performance and passed away later that weekend.
