This post finds me in Denver, about to start the second week of our 2 week run here. Next week, we're off to Memphis.
Denver is a great city, probably one of my favorite so far on tour. The weather is tremendous, there's a great pedestrian mall with some fun stops, a fantastic art museum (specializing in Modern and Western American art), a great running path, and the audience here is wonderful. I don't think I've enjoyed a city this much on tour since Philadelphia.
In other news, I was introduced to the Barber Piano Concerto yesterday. Check out the second movement. It reminds me of the Ravel Piano concerto mixed with some Respighi. It doesn't beat the Ravel in my opinion, but about 5 1/2 minutes in, when the strings enter in unison, prepare to have your life changed. Truly beautiful.
