Celebrate Lunar New Year: Year of the Tiger with the San Francisco Symphony!
Lunar New Year (LNY), or Spring Festival, is the most important cultural holiday for many nations in East, South, and Southeast Asia, and is celebrated by people of Asian descent worldwide. Both a time of profound reflection of the past year and joyous optimism for what is to come, the SF Symphony’s LNY event shares the sounds and beauty of varied musical and cultural experiences coming together in solidarity to fight Asian American and Pacific Islander hate. An inspiring program of music will be performed alongside short video reflections from members of our community on what it means to be Asian American, or to stand in solidarity with Asian Americans, today. We invite you to stand with us in the beautiful sounds, reflections, and great joy of the Year of the Tiger!
Conductor Yue Bao makes her debut leading the Orchestra in traditional folk music and works by Asian composers, featuring Chen Gang & He Zhanhao’s The Butterfly Lovers Concerto and works by Li Huazhi, Tan Dun, Texu Kim, Huang Ruo, and Liu Yuan. The celebration begins with a pre-concert Festival Reception open to all ticketholders at 4:00pm in the Davies Symphony Hall lobbies.
Continue the festivities after the concert by purchasing a dinner package, which includes access to the Festival Reception, premium concert seating, and seating at the Blue Moon Banquet. To secure your Lunar New Year Concert & Blue Moon Banquet package, call 415.503.5351 for reservations and further details.
