John... I know her, because she accompanied us (together with Fabiana Trani on Harp) during a concert in 2000, when our (non-professional) chamber-choir from Wuppertal had a performance in the Tonhalle with a Janacek-Program. Some other musicians of the Düsseldorfer Symphoniker also gave us their support in some concerts in Wuppertal, i.e. Ludmilla Matters, who normally plays the viola in the orchestra, but who did a damned good job as a singer as well that evening.
John Fiore: I went to your football game. Now, you have to come to my concert.
After the game, the three football players did just that.
Interesting how football fans can take in some culture.

John...thanks for answering to my little comment.
I have another question concerning the video:
The lady on the violin, you give "high-five" to...is that Franziska Früh?
BTW: It's sad, that you finished conducting the Düsseldorf Symphonic. It was a great time and you made the orchestra one of the best in Germany!

Dear Hans,
That certainly is Franziska Früh, who is a great violinist and great lady. Thank you for your kind comments. John

That's a great video. The music we hear...isn't that the 2nd movement of the "Symphonie Fantastique"?
