Building on the London/UK theme of a recent post, here you can see Marin Alsop conduct Philip Glass’ Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists in its entirety (3 Parts) in a performance in England.

Great !
Thank you for this valuable link even if I prefer the CD version. I don’t know what was the tempo on the score but I find Mrs. Aslop plays the beginning of the first movement too slowly.
Anyway, I noted during the concert last year in Paris that Mr Haas really took pleasure in playing (t)his concerto.
And people greeted him (and Philip Glass who unfortunately wasn’t here) with thunderous applause which led to an encore !
I really have happy memories of that concert.
