This concert was a very special event, and not just because of its celebratory circumstances and masterful music, but when a major figure acquires venerable status, he or she can take on a quality different from and more notable than mere charisma. It is as if all past achievements, experiences, and significant attributes have been crystallized into an aura that is both ethereal and palpable.
