We're now at Day 4 of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra's single ticket launch. The "biggies" are going quickly as we imagined--Josh Bell, Liza Minnelli, Bugs Bunny, Andre Watts and Pink Martini. And we continue to ask our musicians--which classical, pops or special concert would you recommend a person (either a newbie or a veteran) experience this season? 

Bob Goodlett, Assistant Principal Contrabass:
"I would recommend Mahler's 5th Symphony. It has such monumental emotional substance. In addition, I'm looking forward to seeing soloist Barnabas Keleman play Sibelius' Violin Concerto.  He's a past Gold Medal Winner of the International Violin Competition of Indianapolis. It's always a pleasure to hear him perform."

Jill Boaz, horn:
"My pick is definitely Beethoven's 9th Symphony. Simply put, I love the "Ode to Joy."

What would you pick?  Feel free to comment!
