in Royal Festival Hall - at the end of 20th Century
from Southbank Centre Archive:
Was taken to a performance of Mozart conducted by Herbert Von Karajan. I remember he had something wrong with his legs and was almost carried to the podium where he then stood unaided for the whole symphony… it was magical, it was my first introduction to a full live symphony orchestra performance and I have been hooked ever since.
