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

Had a great time, it was a fun and light evening with some hilarity at the end during the encore. It was well worth the money (and the tickets were cheap too!).Written on Jul 14 2009

This was "Mozart Lite", which is totally appropriate for a summer concert. I loved the young conductor, James Gaffigan. He added an encore (Eine Klene Nachmusik), which is Mozart at his schmaltziest, then added his own touch by leaving the conductor's podium and going to sit behind the orchestra as they continued to play flawlessly. Totally enjoyable evening.Written on Jul 13 2009

Thoroughly enjoyed it; Jeremy Denk and SF Symphony were sensational and great to see many younsters attending. Have deserts at Citizen Cake after the show, less than 10 minutes walk; perfect way to spend an evening in the city.Written on Aug 31 2009

"Music lite" in a good way. Thoroughly enjoyable, the symphony managed to feel intimate like a chamber-music concert. There was even a fun, slightly-silly encore at the end. Quick, friendly...I'm going to try to go to more of this summer series!Written on Jul 20 2009
