Not at all cool, with just the barest wisp of a breeze to aid my enjoyment of the evening. A small crowd is smiling about in the plaza, observed by a smaller group enjoying the balcony. I'd prefer it to be quiet, but instead the rumble of traffic on Bancroft competes with the rumble of heavy duty HVAC units in the surrounding buildings, setting up a busy bass continuo throb and counterthrob | + | Outside at break, about 8:45 PM.

So what'd I think? It was good. Interesting! Engrossing to watch. Even more so to hear! In contrast to a few reviewers, I found the music to be quite complementary to the visual material; to describe it as inessential background is to presume that visual stimuli has some sort of preeminence over auditory stimuli. I really liked it when the ensemble evoked the folk music of Indian village drum and brass bands. It would be fun to experience this show again in a few years! | So what'd I think? It was good.
