There's a change to Giancarlo Guerrero's May, 2025 concerts at SFS. Gabriel Kahane's Talent & Phoenix, a San Francisco Symphony commission, has been postponed to a future date, presumably in a future season. Instead, we'll hear the 1947 version of Stravinsky's Petrushka. Still on the program: Kaija Saariaho's Asteroid 4179: Toutatis and Ottorino Respighi’s Fountains of Rome and Pines of Rome. (This was going to be, and to some extent still is, one of the weirder programs this season. Yeah, people who are really into new music, like the Saariaho and Kahane, are definitely big fans of Fountains and Pines.)
