Ooo-la-la Chanel and An American in Paris


The Cascade Symphony sent the audience onto the streets of Paris tonite with their stirring, live performance of Gershwin's An American in Paris.  Good thing I had my Chanel with me.  What's more Parisian than Chanel?  A perfect little evening bag, with the iconic double C's, including the zipper pull.  And on the inside the name sake smooth lining.  Seemed like Gene Kelly must have been smiling down at us and tapping his toes.


An amazing, full performance by this incredible Cascade Symphony Orchestra. Gershwin was the finale. Other selections were by Verdi, Haydn, Dvorak, Liszt, and Mendelssohn.   Conducting is the talented and delightful Michael Miropolsky.

 The phenomenal cello solo was by world renowned cellist Efe Baltacigil, poised to begin. 





  The double C's were C sharp tonite!
What a treat for Edmonds, Wa tonite!  We love our Cascade Symphony and this is a dream start to their 52nd seasonAmong other recordings, in 2013 the Cascade Symphony Orchestra collaborated with Rick Steves on the innovative Europe, A Symphonic Journey both a CD and DVD released also on PBS.
