Here is a review of one of these concerts.Some might think primarily of the International Festival when looking for classical music, but there are some classical gems in the Fringe too, as this concert proved. The ensemble is almost faultless, and the rightfully titled 'classic' music is so much more moving when experienced live. The arrangements are nicely done and the Richard Strauss finale is the highlight. This is definitely a must for lovers of classical music, but it's an easy introduction for casual listeners to the world of live concerts too. If this is your thing, you will not be disappointed.
