North Platte’s Fox Theater is a wonderful turn of the century venue that exudes history. I was so happy to come back 13 years after my first visit here on another Allied Concerts tour. The audience was heavily in favor of Debussy, but what was really eye-opening was the number of people who play or had played piano: 70% of the audience!! This is one of the higher ratios I’ve had, outside of music conferences and piano festivals! The average age was also on the high side, and the older segment preferred Debussy, which tipped the scale overall. What you don’t see in the breakouts is the very high number of straight Debussy voters!
