Bon Apetit
What does music taste like? There are a variety of different flavors in today's show: The rich, dark chocolate of a Mozart Wind Serenade, from a concert in New York City. The exotic middle-eastern flavors of Camille Saint-Saens'"Egyptian" Piano Concerto, from a performance in Rotterdam. The heartiness of two Hungarian Dances by Brahms. And the refreshing sparkle of Vivaldi's "Spring" concerto, played by Margaret Batjer and the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra.
