built 213 days ago
For first time symphony visitors, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra offers prelude performances that begin one hour prior to the start of the concert. These performances are free to ticketed guests and provide information that helps newcomers recognize key things to listen for during the concert. Also helpful is the "Tips for Beginners" section of the program provided for free at the entrance to the symphony hall.
In November 1995, Litton led the Dallas Symphony Orchestra in a performance at Carnegie Hall, its fourth New York appearance in the orchestra's 95-year history. The orchestra has since made two return appearances in 1999 and 2001, with another planned for 2005. In 1997, 2000 and 2003, the Dallas Symphony and Andrew Litton enjoyed triumphant European tours. The Dallas Symphony debuted at the Colorado Vail Valley Music Festival during the summer of 1999 and will continue those performances through 2006.

"Every important orchestra plays Carnegie Hall sooner or later..Friday night it was the Dallas symphony's turn...Mr. Litton exulted in gutsy razzle-dazzle at on extreme, some welcome finesse at the other. He let the 2001 (Strauss' Also Sprach Zarathustra) fanfares rip with almost deafening zeal at the outset of the tone poem..After intermission he took all manner of dynamic and rhythmic chances in the bawdy-tawdry cantata (Carl Orff's Carmina Burana) mustering drastic liberties in matters of tempo...It was exciting in its shamelessly showy way, and passages of relative delicacy did grace the maestro's progress to the ultimate climax."
