I flew from Baltimore to Denver to attend the Burt Bacharach performance on September 26 with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. The show took place at Boettcher Concert Hall. The stage was surrounded by seats in the front and also on the sides and behind the stage. The men in the orchestra wore black tuxedo jackets and pants, white shirts, and black bowtie. The women in the orchestra were dressed in black. I was in the front row center.
