at the symphony.

The Handel and Haydn Society Orchestra performed Beethoven's Eroica a few weeks ago at Boston Symphony Hall. Critics raved about the performance; Jeffery Gantz of the Boston Globe proclaimed it a triumph, "the best live performance of this Symphony I've heard" while The Boston Music Intelligencer concurred "This was the cleanest and most satisfyingly straightforward live performance of Beethoven’s Third Symphony." 

I'm no classical music critic, but I certainly enjoyed the show and all that goes along with the experience; dressing up for the occasion, soaking up the regal atmosphere inside symphony hall and enjoying a sunny but brisk Sunday afternoon out and about.
