For my second concert I attended the Central Methodist University Concert Band at Swinney Conservatory of music. The first piece that they played was titled Cyrus the Great, this piece was composed by Karl King and arrangement by Andrew Glover.

Unfortunately, I was not able to attend a real concert, since it usually requires transportation and I do not have a car (or friends who would be willing to drive me there and enjoy some classical music). Instead, I listened to the Brahms Violin Concerto (my favorite composer) performed by Chamber Orchestra of Europe conducted by Bernard Haitink with violinist Janine Janses as soloist.

In total, they performed four pieces, two duets and two trios, one of which was an original composition by David Johnson himself.
