The Boston Symphony performed wonderfully today with Beethoven's 9th Symphony under the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas.  Beautifully rendered from start to finish.  The radio moderator said it was a cloudy day at Tanglewood when the performance began, but during the final movement the clouds parted and the sun shone brightly.  The angels must have smiled down upon them.  What makes the performance all the more remarkable is having to perform in 90+ degree weather with high humidity and a full chorus on stage in the Koussevitsky music shed.  They deserved the standing ovation they received.
