Sidney Myer Free Concerts 2007 - No.1

For over 70 years, the Sidney Myer Fund has given the gift of music with the Sidney Myer Free Concerts. Performed by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.

I use to go to these events when I was little. Vividly remembering the picnics that my family has whilst anticipating the Concert to begin.

Just being there has actually gotten me to think about picking up the Cello again, as the last time I played my Cello was in 1999. And definately has added a few more events in my calender for the rest of year.

The Repertoire for the evening:
RIMSKY-KORSAKOV The Golden Cockerel: Suite
RACHMANINOV Piano Concerto No.1 in F sharp minor, Op.1
KALINNIKOV Symphony No.1

Funny moment: skolling our Skyy Vodka bottles thinking we're not allowed to bring them after seeing the security tent. Later realised that we could've brought them in...

Not a bad effort for Valentines Day too!
