In a now-viral video of the moment, JD and Usha are seen taking their seats for what was reportedly the National Symphony Orchestra’s performance of Shostakovich’s "Violin Concerto No. 2" and Stravinsky’s "Petrushka." (Perhaps ironically, perhaps not, both of these musical pieces were composed for a ballet about Russian puppets.)

Vice President JD Vance was greeted with a loud round of boos when attendees spotted him at a performance of Stavinsky's Petrushka at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. on Thursday night (March 13).

The vice president and his wife were booed as they took their seats for a National Symphony Orchestra concert of music by Shostakovich and Stravinsky.
