Saturday's concert marked a sentimental milestone — this was the final appearance as CSO principal trumpet of 53-year-veteran Adolph "Bud" Herseth. Barenboim gave the legendary brass virtuoso a special bow and tried to coax him to the front of the stage, but Herseth typically let his trumpet do the talking — he spiced up one of the Piazzolla tangos and an unannounced Latin encore with his trademark sizzle. The ageless Bud promises to return to the CSO from time to time as a "ringer" (some ringer!). And for that we all must rejoice.
