Comment
AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS, June 8, 2003: A splendid time was guaranteed for
all as Mike Keneally, conductor Jurjen Hempel and the amazing 50-piece
Metropole Orchestra took the stage at Amsterdam's legendary Paradiso to debut
Mike's new piece, The Universe Will Provide. The collaborators reached new
heights after long hours of rehearsal and the audience at the former church
clearly recognized that they were experiencing something new and special with
Mike's first orchestral work. During the third movement, "Room," the battery
on Mike's beloved green Clapton Strat cut out, causing a short delay and a
repeat of "Room" with Mike playing a backup guitar (so now there are two
versions; one with and one without Mike's guitar playing). When the show
resumed, it was with even higher enthusiasm, energy and focus from both
performers and attendees.
