Hands down, the National Ballet of Canada's Orchestra is talented beyond words. The fact that they played in one of engineering's greatest odes to music, Koerner Hall, made the experience of listening to the orchestra doubly majestic.
Last Tuesday, March 3, 2012, the National Ballet of Canada celebrated its 60th anniversary with a concert at Koerner Hall. A couple of years back, Koerner Hall was opened to the public for a free performance during Nuit Blanche, but alas! I missed it. That fact has been a thorn at my side for quite some time, but last Tuesday, I finally conquered my regret! Bwa ha ha! And boy was it ever worth every penny!
