Ars Nova, the innovative 30-member chamber orchestra, heads to D.C.'s Church of the Epiphany for its season finale, performing works from Rossini, Sibelius and Haydn. Each musician of this self-conducted orchestra contributes to the leadership and artistic vision of the entire ensemble, creating a truly collaborative concert experience for both players and audience. The concert is highlighted by the overture from Rossini's La scala di seta, a one-act comic farce, and opens with Canzonetta by the famous Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. For the finale, Ars Nova will perform Joseph Haydn's London Symphony, his final work, which premiered in the British capital at the King's Theatre in 1795.

SF Symphony: Barantschik and Vinocour Play Britten's Double Concerto

Full Price:
$34.00 - $92.00
Our Price:
$10.00

The San Francisco Symphony, under the baton of conductor Kirill Karabits, spotlights violinist Alexander Barantschik and violist Jonathan Vinocour for a performance of Benjamin Britten's Double Concerto. Written as a tribute for Britten's composition teacher when the composer was just 18, the Double Concerto is a challenging piece that requires immense technical skill on both the violin and viola. Its youthful vigor is sure to challenge the virtuosity of the Symphony's Concertmaster and Principal Violist. The program also features Honegger's Pacific 231 and Sibelius' Symphony No. 2.

This was a new group for me, and they play beautifully. The oboe and flute are gorgeous. The works they chose were melodic and engaging, by Sibelius, Rossini, and Haydn. I especially liked Haydn's London Symphony. The church setting, with its colorful stained-glass windows, made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
