Harold Clausen stood out as the nurse’s ally with refined performance. lighting fell short but the eerie tomb scene impressed.
The Friends of Music Society opened its concert with Janacek Mass. Bodansky and the orchestra undertook a bold project. The mass sounded blunt and barbaric at times yet showed definite development and moments of clarity amid religiously charged passages.
