Last month, I attended an evening at the Orpheum to listen to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. Sorry it has taken so long to write about it, but…yawn, I am still a bit sleepy from the event.

I purchased tickets to the first of the new Horizons series. Here is what the VSO had to say about the concerts: “The brand new Horizons series explores music that is cosmopolitan, bold, and adventurous.” Don’t get me wrong, I love the VSO. But except for the charisma of Maestro Bramwell Tovey, I would have to say the evening was anything but cosmopolitan and bold. The only adventure I had that evening was walking along Granville Street to get to the theatre.

In all fairness, despite not getting what I expected, the music was beautifully played. Just like a lullaby.
