VERDI: REQUIEM

Pikes Peak Theatre is one of our favorite places. We went there for the season opening concert on Sat. night. The program was Verdi's Requiem. This concert was performed by the Colorado Springs Philharmonic Orchestra, a local chorus and four soloists, and conducted by Lawrence Smith. We not only enjoyed the great music but also the theatre atmosphere. It is hard to describe the good feelings. Anyway, I just felt my soul was satisfied after the concert.

P.S. We had a nice meal in a Vietnamese restaurant before the concert. Ralph really loved the beef noodle soup and a sweet dessert with a cup of strong Vietnamese coffee.
