The Lone Ranger rides again.

Last night I attended the Audience Choice performance of the Fort Wayne Philharmonic, and while I enjoyed every part of the performance, I must admit that my favorite was the Overture to William Tell. The music was wonderful and I also appreciated the director's comments.  I'll admit, when they started the fourth movement I couldn't help thinking about the Lone Ranger, but I also had to laugh.  In his introductory remarks the director said this section represented a march of the Swiss Army.  Let me tell you, if they were marching to that music, they were moving right along.  I love music that leaves me smiling.
