Vivaldi at Zankel
On balance, last Thursday's two hours of baroque music, most of it by Antonio Vivaldi, was just a tad excessive. It didn't help that I couldn't see. No more seats on the side of the mezzanine for me! (The boxes on the main level are great.)
The good thing about the length of the concert was that Ms NOLA and I didn't get to the Brooklyn Diner until minutes before ten o'clock, which is when the restaurant begins offering late-night Eggs Benedict. That's always just what I want.
When dinner was over, we walked to the subway station alongside Carnegie Hall, Ms NOLA to board the Q and I to wait for the first train to come along on the other track. I got home minutes before Kathleen did.
