All State Symphonic Orchestra

I thought you wouldn’t mind having some classical music to listen to. Here are two of the 5 pieces we played at Fort Collins under the direction of conductor John Thomas Dodson. The first one is the “Carnival Overture, Op. 92” by Antonín Dvořákk, the second is “The Moldau” by Bedrich Smetana. The composition by Smetana is marvelous even without considering that he wrote it in the later years of his life while totally deaf. The inspiration was a journey along the river Moldau, composing it in his mind.
