Former music director Edo de Waart returns to perform with the San Francisco Symphony for the first time since 1997. The evening begins with an introduction to the music of Franz Schreker, an Austrian opera composer whose music combines the stylistic traits of several artistic movements and whose immersive scores are cinematic in their ability to draw the listener into the story. This innovative and once-obscure composer has seen a revival in popularity in recent years. The program also includes Rachmaninoff's sophisticated and modern Fourth Piano Concerto and the thundering Organ Symphony of Camille Saint-Saëns, his last and most dramatic symphonic work. Learn More

Excellen concert -- even with 2-tier seating, the tone, musical richness, and sound level. The post question and answer session was outstanding.Written on May 11 2009

We were expecting big things. While the hosts were gracious and the orchestra definitely delivered...Labadie's interpretation of the music seemed uninspired. Granted, we were in the cheap seats...but there was so much more energy in the score that didn't make it to the rafters.Written on May 12 2009
