The superb Vienna Philharmonic presented an excellent concert in Prom 61 . Dvorak's nasty little fairy tale about the "Noonday Witch" was the opening work and was followed by Korngold's very melodious Violin Concerto. The soloist added a brief encore by Torrega.

Following intermission, Dvorak's Symphony No. 9("New World"), commemorating the time he spent in the U.S., was the major work and the concert concluded with a Strauss polka as an encore.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
