When I was in college, I went on a whim to see if I could get a ticket to hear Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (whom I hadn't even heard of at the time) sing Schubert's Winterreise at Carnegie Hall. I managed to score a ticket in about the 7th or 8th row of the orchestra section. At the end of the concert, I sat there dumbfounded. It changed my life.
