Orpheus Chamber Orchestra

My wife and I saw the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra tonight, featuring Richard Goode on piano. They performed four main pieces - Sinfonia in B-flat major, Op. 18 No. 2, written by J.C. Bach (notice the 'C' and not an 'S'), Piano Concerto No. 9 in E-flat Major, K-271 ("Jeunehomme"), written by Mozart, Overture to Fantasia by Luigi Cherubini, and Piano Concerto No. 3 in C-minor, Op. 37, by Beethoven.

We both enjoyed the concert. Although I not an aficionado I can say that I am a fan. I have several mp3's from Bach and Mozart and I have the complete Brandenburg Concertos on CD (5 is my favorite). I also have several mp3's and CD's from Copland too. Overall, I find classical music complex yet enjoyable.

Again, it was a great concert and certainly a nice night out.
