The Main Line Symphony Orchestra and conductor Don Liuzzi deserve breakfast in bed – an English breakfast, of course – for last night’s impressive rendering of Ruth Gipps’ Symphony No. 2, a work I never dreamed I would ever get to hear live. Their performance of Ernest Bloch’s “Schelomo,” with the Philadelphia Orchestra’s Yumi Kendall the cello soloist, was also very fine. Of course, I can turn down no opportunity to hear Vaughan Williams’ Symphony No. 5. The program will be repeated at Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel in Elkins Park, PA, this afternoon at 1:00. Thank you, MLSO!
