Event Description
Direct from Russia, the Siberian State Symphony Orchestra makes its debut under San Francisco Symphony auspices playing the great Russian classics under the baton of Music Director Vladimir Lande. Experience the sweeping melodies of one of the most paramount works of its kind—Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto—performed by International Tchaikovsky Competition prize-winning violinist, Pavel Milyukov. The program continues with another master of symphonic storytelling: Rimsky-Korsavkov. Hear his overture to his dramatic opera, The Tsar’s Bride, and his spectacular Scheherazade, a wondrous symphonic portrait of the fairy tale collection Arabian Nights and one of the most beguiling and evocative scores in all classical music.
