Do you (Heidi Lukas) have other favorite tour locations and/or tour performances from your tenure with the CSO?
It’s hard to believe, but I’ve now been on over 45 tours, so I’ve been fortunate that I’ve traveled to many diverse places with the orchestra. It’s difficult to choose, but I would say that my favorite cities to visit over the years have been Tokyo and Lucerne. There have been so many great tour performances, but just to share one, I do have an enduring memory from the end of my first foreign tour. The CSO played a single concert in Leipzig, Germany. It was Mahler 5, and I will never forget hearing the orchestra there with Bud Herseth’s solo trumpet opening the piece — truly a concert that will always be with me! |
