…Jubilation, later, with the splendid YASO (Young Arts & Sounds Orchestra), composed entirely of young musicians and conducted by Maestro Aurelio Canonici who transcribed the entire score of the two concerts, for all the instruments, by extracting them from old LP’s…Then came the second “Concerto Grosso” and, finally, a true gem, a novel rock arrangement for band and orchestra of Mussorgskij’s “Night on Bald Mountain”. Spontaneous applause throughout the performance…The final encores… and, again, the YASO Orchestra with the piece by Mussorgskij. A great success and a great performance surrounded by great enthusiasm.
