It was a decent performance. I have a preference for very fast tempi in this piece, and they played it quite fast. There were some mannerisms I wasn't a fan of (clipped phrasing) from the first violinist but on the whole I was very happy to see one of my favorite chanber works performed live. Yo-Yo Ma had a few slips, but he was actually quite a bit more aggressive than in the recordings I've heard him in, which was nice to hear. The Ozawa Hall was amazing. I was all the way in the back up the third floor and I could still hear everything very well. The only thing that didn't come through well were the violin pizzicati.
