On the plus side....it was amusing to see all the pagan decorations sprinkled around the place by the pious fools.
And least the performance was excellent.
Why did you go?
Same reason I plan to go to the Sistine Chapel.
Really? I did not know that the Sistine Chapel was "a triumph of Western musical expression". Hmm. You learn something new every day.

By the way, folks, my question was just one of curiosity. It was not filled with some hidden agenda. You may think the answer was obvious, e.g., to hear excellent music. But to me it was not obvious as I would not go somewhere to hear excellent music if I knew I would come home feeling like I had to take a shower, as Min put it. Hence, I thought I would ask to get his perspective about things.
