This weekend was really spectacular... we went and saw Yo-Yo Ma live at the Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor. We'd been planning on this since August, and it didn't disappoint. Alan's favorite was "Le Grande Tango" by Astor Piazzolla... Mine was Gismonti's "Bodas de Prata & Quatro Cantos," a piece I'd never heard before. It was haunting and sweet.
Here's a list of the program for Saturday evening:
Program
· Schubert : Arpeggione Sonata in a minor, D. 821
· Shostakovich : Sonata in d minor, Op. 40 (1934)
· Piazzolla : Le Grand Tango (1982)

· Franck : Sonata in A Major for Violin and Piano (trans.) (1886)
Encores
· Elgar : Salut d'amore Op. 12
· Gershwin : Prelude No. 1
· Saint Saëns : The Swan (from Carnival of the Animals)
