I did go, but, through no fault of your brother's, was unable to remain.

The [couple of years ago] refurbished MA Mini Hall is not a good hall. The lighting is wrong and glares in the eyes, and the acoustics are not good. The sound levels were far too high. Grimacing at the woman on the sound desk, I was forced to give up and leave.

On such short exposure, all I can say is that your brother seems like a serious young man, seriously presenting music with a good voice. He had great accompanists there tonight, too.

Whilst, objectively, I say it was too loud ---for acoustic music--- my ears have been over-sensitive recently even to the hifi at home. Others were able to stay and enjoy, but I was not.

Sorry... I'll make up for it next time.
