When Mundoclasico.com's intended reviewer became indisposed in a rather dramatic fashion halfway through this performance, I, his guest, was drafted into service. Obedient to duty, I answer the call.
The most thrilling moment of the concert, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the RTVE Symphony Orchestra, was, of course, not during the performance of Mahler's Second Symphony at all, but rather the entrance of Sus Altezas Reales Los Principes de Asturias, amid a shower of paparazzi flashbulbs, police running to and from, and the entire audience murmuring and straining their necks to catch a glimpse of the royal couple and the crowd of government and cultural luminaries surrounding them. The Princess Letizia looked ravishing in a coral and orange silk suit.
