Mozart and Rimsky-Korsakov Shape Bend Lake Civic Symphony Night
Register-News staff writer Fred Eaton reviews Bend Lake Civic Symphony's third concert under D Edward Tandy. The program opened with Mozart Eine Kleine Nachtmusik played with strong tone and balance at times, though timing varied. Sheherazade themes began poorly but improved, while the 40th symphony movements showed uneven spotty portions yet later sections shone. The second half opened with Tchaikovsky Waltz of the Flowers and Tales from the Viennese Woods, with Yvonne Gieselman excelling in Jealous Lover. The program closed with Blue Tango and Mary Poppins music. The reviewer notes pacing issues in the first part and calls for faster Sheherazade tempo, praising live performance spontaneity over recordings.
