The experience was so positive. After braving the cold weather and walking with the protesters by chance, sitting in the Art Institute's concert hall was truly a spiritual experience. Candlelight, intimate setting, comfortable seating and the sound of string instruments made for a perfect hour of enjoyment.

This was such a lovely experience. It was my first time. I loved how the orchestra interacted with the audience and had us join in to sing on some of the songs. The hour went by so fast, I would totally pay for a long concert just in this style.
