Music Director  Esa-Pekka Salonen returns to conduct  the SF Symphony Orchestra for a program featuring the effervescent and sensational Yuja Wang in two piano concertos: Maurice Ravel’s Piano Concerto for the Left Hand and Einojuhani Rautavaara’s Piano Concerto #1.

The endlessly inventive, superbly creative and a showcase for the spectacular fashions Yuja Wang brings her dramatic flair and unique interpretive finesse to both piano concertos.

Salonen leads the SF Symphony Orchestra in the world premiere of a new work by Emerging Black Composers Project winner Xavier Muzik; Sergei Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto #2 featuring the amazing pianist  Daniil Trifonov; in addition to the playful interpretation of Stravinsky’s “The Rite of Spring” under the masterful baton of Maestro Salonen.

One day only – so don’t miss this performance by the virtuoso violinist Joshua Bell in partnership with the renowned Academy of St. Martin in the Fields performing works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Franz Joseph Haydn and Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov.

This concert is a part of the SF Symphony Great Performers Series!

 

Robin Ticciati Conducts Beethoven’s Piano Concerto #4

February 28 – March 2, 2025

A fabulous concert by the visiting conductor featuring Francesco Piemontesi in his Orchestral Series debut, playing Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Symphony #2 with the SF Symphony. Ticciati’s rise to the top tier of conductors was meteoric. In 2005, at the age of 22, he conducted the Filarmonica della Scala in Milan – as the youngest conductor in the venerable history of the house.

A year later he made his debut at the Salzburg Festival, causing a domino effect which led to several long-term positions: with the Gävle Symphony Orchestra, the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and, in parallel, as principal guest conductor of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra. By

2014 he was music director of the Glyndebourne Festival. A must see!
