The Friday concert was a Classical KUSC @ Pacific Symphony concert, the last of three.  This is an abridged performace, just one and a half hour long, but with shared insights from hosts from KUSC.  This night, early morning show host John Van Driel introduced the works.  Carl, Paul, and John hung out after the concert to engage with the audience

We took a picture with Paul!  :)
