Philadelphia Orchestra+Struss + Karita Mattila

We were extremely lucky to be part of the Philadelphia Orchestra performance on Saturday and to be among the exciting audiences of your excellence Karita Mattila. We will be seeing ms.Mattila again this March, for her role in Tosca, directed by Luc Bondy. I tried to sketch really really quickly, and "quietly"... However, it isn't easy when you are sitting in the first row and literally, at he heel of the conductor Jiri Belohlavek, who's conducting was equally amazing.
