OK, Leonard Bernstein's single best classical composition, the Serenade after Plato's "Symposium". OK, Bernstein's flute concerto, Halil: one of his better late-period works. OK, Bernstein's Three Meditations from MASS -- withAshley Bathgate playing Rostropovich's cello part! But you know what's most exciting about this program? A new mass by Paola Prestini, whose compositions never fail to interest and attract.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Ho Yip for Cantonese that's better than what you expect from a steam-table business-district lunch spot.
