Sunday morning, coming down.....

G-Man texted yesterday that he was at a free concert in Bed Stuy.  Mos Def performing with the Brooklyn Philharmonic outside the Billy Holiday Theatre.

(NY Times) When an orchestra wants to play outside it usually ends up in a park, a pastoral setting for picnicking and music that is familiar and not too demanding: Bernstein’s “West Side Story” Suite, say, or Mozart’s “Jupiter” Symphony. The audience is generally as white as the wine. - (the whole enchilada)
