Anyone else see the letter in today's N&O complaining about Newman's
"crudeness" at the symphony last month?
(http://www.newsobserver.com/opinion/letters/story/2806410p-9250051c.html) I
saw the Sunday matinee and loved it; getting a chance to hear live versions
of Newman's beautifully orchestrated tunes was a real treat, and his
conducting of a few film score excerpts really got me thinking again about
classical music (or at least soundtrack music). He cussed a few times, as I
recall, a "shit" or two and maybe one teensy "fuck," but I'm curious if he
did anything more "crude" than that on Friday night. I've been told that
about 20 folks walked out on him early on, but it's not clear whether the
cause was the cussing or not getting that "Short People" was satire.

Anyway, it was a great show; the 2nd set had tons of really poignant and
beautiful moments. Anyone who liked it too might want to consider sending a
letter to show support for the idea of the NC Symphony occasionally untucking
its shirt and taking a chance on someone with some bite to them. I mean, have
you seen the rest of the Pops schedule?

Pretty standard stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with reaching out for
the familiar in a "Pops" series, but they do seem to have taken a bit of a
chance with Newman as the season opener, and that kind of thing really ought
to be encouraged.
