Joe Offer	Applause Between Movements of a Symphony (19)	Applause Between Movements	24 Jan 23
I was brought up to believe that one should never clap between movements at a symphonic performance, but I admit that I sometimes slip and clap and other times feel smugly superior to those who do clap. But deep in my heart of hearts, I think it's a nice thing to clap. I mean, maybe that third movement of Dvorak's Seventh is the best of them all, and deserves applause. So, I'd like to applaud, but then I feel guilty if I do. Thoughts? -Joe- This article says maybe I shouldn't feel guilty about clapping between movements. https://apnews.com/article/9cc22bdea9214ca68e233c956139e0ae
