Igor Stravinksy in Hollywood Bowl - 1945

from Memories and Commentaries, page 231:

The next day I attended his [Dimitri Mitropoulos] rehearsal of Prokofiev’s Third Piano Concerto in Hollywood Bowl and was amazed by the virtuosity of his performance, playing the solo part and conducting at the same time.
