Go to this concert!

The Las Vegas Philharmonic is opening its 9th annual concert season on September 29 at 8 p.m. at the Artemus W. Ham Concert Hall on UNLV (that's a lot of prepositions!). Tickets are $29-73; students get 50% one hour before curtain.

David Itkin is our new conductor so this will be his inaugural season. Kiril Laskarov will be the guest artist on violin. These two will definitely be dynamic performers. Plus, the orchestra are really cool too ;).

On the menu for the evening is Berlioz's Roman Carnival, Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E minor and Brahms' Symphony No. 2. These are all pretty much romantic composers but not in the "bring your sweetheart" way. It's the "LOUD soft soft soft Louder Louder LOUD soft LOUD soft" kind of romantic music.

So bring your friend or worst enemy. I'll be there. But I won't be square!
