We saw Itzakh Perlman play with and conduct the Atlanta Symphony this afternoon. Had great seats, 8th row center (ok, off-center by 3 seats), and he played Bach's 1st Violin Concerto with the emotion evocative of Tchaikovsky (that may sound a bit like apples and oranges to some, but it fit perfectly). Incredible performance. It's great to see a virtuoso performer like him do it so comfortably, it really set the audience at ease.
