This was very tough. Not an xml parsing fan.

First time using the XML Parse tool.  had fun figuring out what settings to use for each section, but ended up pretty streamline compared to other solutions I'm seeing.

Whew, this one was a workout! Good practice configuring parsing tools!

The solution retains only the first performance of each program (for example, the solution contains the 9/7/2011 performance of program 11640, but not the 9/8/2011 performance).
I parsed all concerts, but filtered out all but the first.

The given solution removes first intermissions, but not all intermissions (for example, Program ID = 12104 and Piece ID = 7955*.
I removed all intermissions.

The given solution converts the soloist list to V_String (rather than V_WString), so some special characters are lost (example: Program ID = 13872, Piece ID = 2663*).
I used a V_WString field type to retain the special characters.
