Daniel Harding has withdrawn from his scheduled San Francisco Symphony appearance next month; he will be conducting the Cleveland Orchestra on their tour of Israel. Franz Welser-Möst has withdrawn from that tour for medical reasons.

Elim Chan, chief conductor of the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra, will conduct these concerts, retaining Holst's The Planets and substituting Britten's Les Illuminations (with tenor Andrew Staples) for Ralph Vaughn Williams's On Wenlock Edge.

The dates are October 26-28, 2023.
