Day 20: The NY Philharmonic concert in Central Park is BTS

When you’re invited to a sonic bacchanalia graced by no less than Shostakovich’s Festive Overture; Mendelsohn’s Symphony No. 4, Italian; Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture; and 61,000 New Yorkers ready to get high the classical way, you’d think, too, that the rest is indeed noise. The hissing of summer lawns has never been more tempting.
