Kilts at the Symphony

**Alan H** · 18th October 06, 10:53 AM

A few weekends ago the Redwood Symphony played a Celtic-inspired concert, which included a piece by Dennis Russel Davies that included a part near the end for a piper. Panache and Sinbad attended. I thought you all might enjoy the unusual sight of a piper on stage with a symphony orchestra, and besides, doesn't Sinbad look cool in his kilt and jacket and tie?

Great pictures, Alan. Sinbad does indeed look fine in his kilt, as do you and Panache. You make quite the rabble! Thanks for sharing.

If that piper sounded as grand as he looks, I'm sure it was a great performance.

You 2 gents are a fine example to the lad, too!

Well done all....I've got to stop working weekends so that I can make more of these outings!

Lovely!

Sinbad...tell your dad he needs to wear his tie a tad bit longer...yours is perfect

So... once the pipes "kick-in", can you hear the orchestra?

Looks like it was a wonderful evening!

You guys look great, though I agree that it looks like Panache is wearing one of Sinbad's ties.

That is the most casually-dressed symphony orchestra I've ever seen. They should be ashamed to share the stage with that magnificent piper.
