If insincerity was put to music, this performance would be a symphony orchestra. The body language and answers are incongruent and contrived. FAIL!
It’s like an unfinished symphony ... It will always be a work in progress.
Inside the tower, there is the bray of donkeys … a donkey symphony.
provide a sweet symphony of flavors for those who love dessert, laughing, and living.
Alan's main concern was for the audience ... And to have this most beautiful, and this most delicate, symphony stopped by an iPhone at its most vulnerable moment -- [that] was what Alan was really concerned about, for the other 2,750 people in the hall.
Vermont Festivals announces the triumphant return of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra to the Opera House ... This year's debut of the fourth program in the symphony’s Masterworks Series will have something to offer to all classical music lovers.
So plan to ward off the mid-winter doldrums and ward off any influence from the Ides of March with a memorable evening of Vermont's own state symphony orchestra, and the good company of your neighbors ... Make an evening of it.
It energizes everybody. It is different to play with live music and it’s fantastic. Being a dancer and performing in front of a full symphony orchestra is a pretty high experience, and the musicians love it, too
The whole thing is in one-eighths totally countable; it’s all strings. I’d say that I picked the two pieces because they are very different, but I thought it would be something that the symphony would like — to have this theme of minimalism yet it would show off my dancers really well, because they woul...
We felt this was a great opportunity to bring the symphony here during our tourist season
It's not often that hundreds of audiophiles have the chance to sample the world's finest equipment and compare it with the very thing it was intended to reproduce, the emotional power of a live symphony orchestra

People are less skilled at sitting through a Beethoven symphony with their attention completely on it.

The weather is rugged. The economy is rugged. The women are rugged. For a young millionaire not named Bruce Wayne, the art museum and symphony don’t matter. The Cleveland Clinic doesn’t matter. The grit and guts that are supposed to make the underdog beloved don’t matter, either.
You get to see musicians work with each other on a level that you wouldn’t normally see in a symphony
