This will be a fun show
I know the Respighi they're also playing is a very exciting and dramatic piece!

More ratchet!!!
I'm really looking forward to some precision ratcheting at this performance. the triangle and ratchet percussionist for the Lake Union Civic Orchestra is particularly good.

A percussion tour de force!
I'm sure the Beethoven was well played and all, but I wanted to get up and dance in the aisle when Respighi's Feste Romane was finally performed. It was an absolute tour de force, especially the percussion section. Loved every minute of the Respighi.

What a Treat!
It had been a while, over a year, since I sat and chilled and listened to an orchestra, and what a wonderful treat I discovered with the Lake Union Civic Orchestra! The musicians are all extremely talented, the director very personable, and the whole experience a great refuel for the spirit. The Debussy and Strauss show was a neat contrast between turn-of-the-century French and German musical styles, and the upcoming show of The Planets and The Sorceror's Apprentice will be a fun performance and perfect for a warm summer evening. 5 Stars!
