Get thee to the symphony. Seriously.

Buy tickets and go. There's really no other musical experience like a full orchestra and for some reason, the music just has a way of soothing the soul.

The show on Saturday was fantastic. Lots of Haydn. Lots of passion from the conductor. Lots of older patrons. I'd never experienced the symphony of a major city. Winston's is quite good for a city that size. But I think they have to stick to the more well known works as there isn't a population that can support less well known works.

Anyway, go. You'll like it. Your ears will like it. Your brain will feel relaxed and refreshed all at the same time. And no, the symphony doesn't make you older. That's time's fault.
