San Francisco Symphony @ Shoreline Amphitheater

[thoreau]

A rousing evening of fireworks with the symphony. They played all sorts of stuff from Aaron Copeland's Fanfare for the Common Man to John Williams Calling of the Heroes. I made chicken curry sandwiches with currants and mango - and the couple we went with brought juices and chocolate chip cookies to die for! The show was marvelous. They performed Copeland's Lincoln Portrait and Lauren Bacall was the speaker. She looked devine - I wonder if she lives in the neighborhood? The fireworks were directly overhead and were very cool.
