In
celebration of the re-opening of Cincinnati’s historic Music Hall after an
extensive renovation, Clef Notes is
spending the month of October looking at many of the “big names” who have
performed in the hall over the years. So far, we’ve mentioned Mstislav
Rostropovich, Richard Strauss, Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein, Sergei
Rachmaninoff, and Igor Stravinsky.
Can
you name another star who made an appearance in Music Hall during the early
twentieth century? What about Camille Saint-Saens, who came to Cincinnati as
conductor and soloist in his Second Piano Concerto in 1906?
