comment: Due to extensive flight delays at LaGuardia Airport, the orchestra did not arrive at the hall until approximately one hour prior to the performance; many orchestra members performed in street clothes as a result. Additionallly, chansonnier HK Gruber did not appear as scheduled (he was stranded in Chicago by the same bad weather that delayed the orchestra); conductor David Robertson performed "Frankenstein" in his place, with resident conductor Ward Stare leading the orchestra.
