Email from San Francisco Symphony reminds me that I have a ticket to see Osmo Vänskä conduct this tasty program on February 1:
Daniil Trifonov piano
San Francisco Symphony
Sibelius Night Ride and Sunrise
Rachmaninoff Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini
Stravinsky Symphonies of Wind Instruments
Sibelius Symphony No. 6
The Rach is great fun and the rest of the program is fabulous. Come and applaud this great conductor for standing up for what's right at the Minnesota Orchestra, too.
The sale and a visit to SFS last night enabled me to grab a ticket for the Thursday matinee, so I'm on it!
ReplyDeleteI paid full price, but fine by me - it's a great program.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Daniil's performance this week. I was surprised to learn that he had no Rachmaninoff in his fingers until 2012. 'Rhapsody', I believe, was the first!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I am sure I will!
