Gail Carberry Happy Traveler The seats were wonderful — we were in center orchestra only 20 seats from the stage. The pianist and of course the SF Symphony were in fine form and the selections wonderful. Altogether a great evening at a reasonable price! |

Event Highlights
More Details About This Event: James Gaffigan, conductor Bizet: "Carmen," Suite No. 1 Inon Barnatan, a pianist who has wowed audiences from Carnegie Hall to the Concertgebouw, brings Saint-Saëns’s effervescent Second Piano Concerto to life. Bizet’s lively suite from Carmen, Ravel's homage to waltz, and the boisterous fun of Orpheus in the Underworld complete this pouring of musical champagne. About San Francisco Symphony: The San Francisco Symphony and Michael Tilson Thomas present more than 220 concerts each year from September through July in a variety of genres, with SFS musicians performing classical concerts, holiday favorites, summer pops events, free outdoor concerts, special series for families and children, plus presentations of visiting guest artists and orchestras from around the globe. The San Francisco Symphony also takes its unique style to audiences world-wide, touring nationally and internationally every year. The SFS is currently recording all the Mahler symphonies on its own media label and has recently launched Keeping Score, a national, multi-year, multi-media project bringing classical music to millions of Americans via TV, radio, the Internet and more. About Davies Symphony Hall: Completed in September, 1980 after more than two years of construction, Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall is the home of the San Francisco Symphony.During the summer of 1992, Davies Symphony Hall underwent a major renovation, enhancing its acoustics to ensure an even better musical experience, and making an already stunning interior more beautiful still. The San Francisco Symphony's home owes its name to the efforts and perseverance of Mrs. Louise M. Davies, the largest individual contributor to the building. |
