RotK Symphony 9/10-11/2010

Just got an email that the RotK symphony at Wolftrap, VA will be Fri & Sat September 10-11, 2010 next fall.

The info is here.

Tickets go on sale a month from now.

Shall we plan a moot around it? What say you, hobbit posse?

The yahoos still do hang out on the lawn, as was my experience with a concert I sat on the lawn for a year ago--people talking all through it and ringing cellphones--ugh. So I learned Wolftrap isn't worth doing unless you get a seat in the shell--I dealt with no yahoos there.

Yes, that sounds like the way to go. I sat out on the lawn for a concert and I may as well have stayed home and listened to a record (it was long enough ago that records would have been the medium). I also saw an opera there, inside (also ages ago), which was better in terms of noise and distractions, but I was not close enough to see the performers's faces well, so that I lost a lot of the dramatic oomph and finesse of their performances. So I think one has to sit inside, but not too far away.

Yes, exactly. Which is why I'll be keeping an eye out on how the tickets are selling when they go on sale in a couple of weeks and see how quickly we need to get the group together.

Go forth, oh fearless leader!
