The MET Orchestra showcases its diverse skills in Gubaidulina, Beethoven and Stravinsky

Alan Yu, 3rd December

One can be forgiven for expecting that a Sunday afternoon concert should consist of light classics to which one doesn’t need to apply too much mental exertion. The works in yesterday afternoon’s performance by the MET Orchestra under music director Fabio Luisi were anything but light. In fact, I suspect that the electrifying energy of the concert would be enough to keep me going for a long time.
