Adelaide Now reviews Jon Lord’s first performance with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra (March 27):
‘The concerto, lost for almost 30 years, occupied the first half of the program and truly set a new benchmark for the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s rock crossover programming.
While it bears a few quirky hallmarks of its era, for the most part Lord’s epic three-movement composition not only stands the test of time, but shines as a successful – and ground-breaking – fusion of rock and symphony.’
Great review! I was there, indeed mixing the orchestra for the gig.
Always nice to receive such good notices, but then the work deserves it!
cheers
