Conductor David Robertson, of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra and BBC Symphony Orchestra leads the San Francisco Symphony in a program of great contrasts. The evening begins with a bang, as Rossini's Overture to L'Italiana in Algeri starts things off. This widely recorded and performed piece opens slowly, leading up to a joyous burst of music. Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2 follows, showing off the bold and colorful style of the composer's youthful pieces. Dvořák's Symphony No. 7 closes out the evening. This complex piece combines intense calm and peacefulness with moments of intense turmoil and is one of the works that best embodies the spirit of its composer. Learn More

The SF Symphony is always a stupendous musical experience, but the Groupon seats were terrible. To me, "premier" didn't mean the very last row of the very last balcony, so we could literally touch the ceiling. The Symphony does its own deals, especially for seniors and students, which allow you to select your own seats. Next time I'll go through the Symphony rather than Groupon.Written on Nov 28 2011

Virtuoso Gil Shaham gave his all with Brahms' Violin Concerto. MTT continued the high level of musicanship for an evocative rendition of Schoenberg's transcription of Brahms' Piano Quartet. A brilliant evening.Written on Nov 29 2011
