The concert was again another winner. The highlight was a violin concerto featuring a local artist, Julian Rhee. a graduate of Brookfield High School
He played the very difficult Violin Concerto in D major, Opus 35, by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, who was the subject of the preconcert talk about artists who were subjected to the Nazi regime in Austria.

Julian included a Bach encore.
Also on the program was Medea's Dance of Vengeance, by Samuel Barber and Sergei Rachmaninoff's Symphonic Dances Opus 45.
Our bus was at a stop light on Wells and Water when a car ignored the stop light and turned left, lost control of his car, drove into some barricade and smashed his left front of the car. It looked like a mess. Abby Hauser alerted an approaching police squad car. The driver got out of the car, apparently uninjured, but he was waving his fists for some reason.
