Notes:

2012-04-04:

Concert recordings of both the 2012-03-03 and 2012-03-04 are now available. Also available are Quicktime videos of both concerts. Like the videos from the 2011-11-19 concert, these files are huge, so use some discretion downloading them. The Oxy videos are shot from a single point, probably from about the 10th row, left side of the auditorium (from the audience perspective), at about stage level. Consequently, only the outside first violins, soloists, and conductor are reasonably visible. The Caltech videos are shot from a similar audience perspective as the Oxy ones. Since the Caltech stage is much lower, much more of the orchestra is visible.

2012-04-03:

Quicktime videos of the 2011-11-19 concert are now available. Follow the links near the MP3 download links. The video files are huge (about 50-55 MB per minute of video), so it may not be practical to download the whole concert.

2012-02-01:

Concert recordings from the 2011-11-19 concert are now available.

2012-01-25:

Concert recordings from the 2011-11-20 concert are now available.

2011-03-09:

Concert recordings from the 2011-02-26 concert are now available. There were some unrecoverable recording errors in the last minute of the Brahms 3rd movement and the first 2 minutes of the 4th movement. These manifest as short-duration background clicks.

2010-12-21:

Links to all previously available concert recordings are now available (sporadically, back to March 2001). See previous concerts page. Concerts are in reverse chronological order. Please report any broken links to me.

2010-12-01:

At present, there is no 2010-11-14 version of the Shostakovich Passacaglia/Burlesca track. Check back regularly, it will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
