Theme Day - Contrast

City Daily Photo Blog theme day this month is contrast. The contrast here is not only the light and the dark, but the new young conductor, Shi-Yeon Sung, filling in on very short notice for the injured James Levine at Symphony Hall Tuesday night.

To view the theme of "Contrast" as interpreted in other cities around the world click here to view thumbnails for all participants.

Marvellous! What also struck me is the two pianos! Now that's a contrast from the ordinary one. Had to look it up - I've never heard that piece by Stravinsky. Hurray for a woman conductor too!

Classy, musical photo of undoubtedly a wonderful evening! Maybe the music contrasted, too?!

It's so interesting to look at the shot and create our own contrasts. For me it is how small the humans are in the enormous hall. And yet, they filled it with sound in a way they could never fill it with their bodies.

Great shot. You can't beat an orchestra and choir like this one.

excellent shot. it looks like it is a realist painting.

To what shall I compare this life of ours?
Even before I can say it is like a lightning flash or a dewdrop,
it is no more. -Gibon Sengai (1750-1837)
