Re-opening of Sydney's Opera House

 Yesterday evening, we saw on television a performance of Mahler's second symphony to celebrate the re-opening of Sydney's wonderul Opera house after extensive upgrades in recent months. This beautiful work - one of the world's greatest symphonies - was delightfully presented and brought massive applause at the end. I managed to take some picture of proceedings on television and they're attached below. By the way, this symphony is appropriately called the 'Resurrection'! After all, the Opera House had been resuurected! Note the vast number of performers - both orchestral and in the massive chrous.

The huge choir can be seen behind the orchestrain this photo.

By the way, I did take a movie of the final stages of the symphony, but it's 356,000 kb long. I could send it to you separately if you ask nicely!
