Sorry to say, this was absolutely the worst concert I have heard in a long time. Not just my opinion. We were in a group of 8, including several serious musicians, including myself, and concert-goers. Two of them left at half-time, we would have, but we were riding with another couple. So what went wrong? 1st, a total lack of variety. 2nd, hard to understand anything. My wife and I have gone to many a concert and have been members of BCCM since the 1990’s. It has been a wonderful series and we hope that trend will continue. Hopefully, this concert was a blip on that radar.
