10-24-15 Music In Maryland. The BSO and Brian Ganz!
OK this title is a bit misleading…they aren’t playing together but Brian Ganz and the BSO are both featured on this week’s Music In Maryland.

Last week Kati and I went to the BSO centennial gala and it was as if David Zinman had never conducted the orchestra! Frankly his years with the BSO as Music Director (1985 – 1998) were among the orchestras greatest. In this centennial year it is truly ridiculous that he still refuses to conduct the […]
