On the spur of the moment, Inna informed me that she could get tickets to see
Leslie Odom Jr (the lead in Broadway's Hamilton) with the San Francisco Symphony in
concert at Davies Symphony Hall.
Although the program was not known beforehand, it might surprise me with unexpected popular songs.
The concert began with the San Francisco Symphony playing an introductory number. Afterward, Leslie Odom Jr and his band walked on stage and immediately started playing some of his popular songs.
The concert consisted of two parts. We enjoyed the second part more.
The Song Set List (from memory) as no details were provided:
I liked the concert and especially enjoyed Leslie's versions of Nat King Cole's songs: Unforgettable and Mona Lisa.
