Some of the pieces performed recently are: Stravinsky’s “Petrouchka,” and “Rite of Spring,” Richard Strauss’s “Alpine Symphony,” Dvorak’s 8th, “La Valse,” and “Daphnis et Chloe,” by Ravel, Moussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition,” Prokofiev’s 5th Symphony, Tchaikovsky’s 5th Symphony, and Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Scheherazade.” (These are just some of those done in the last two years.)

And yes, of course we do have our own opinions, and I’ll admit I may be just a tad prejudiced on this one. :-)
