I'm having some difficulty finding downloadable press photos of either Esther Tonea or Gabrielle Beteag, the soloists in the Santa Rosa Symphony's Mahler 2 plus Jonathan Leshnoff's brief Warum hast du gelitten?, so you'll have to settle for a screen shot of an early printing of the title page of the score. Anyway, two reviewers were there:
- Lisa Hirsch, SFCV (Saturday)
- Joshua Kosman, On a Pacific Aisle (Sunday)
And there are two upcoming opportunities to hear Mahler's Second, with different orchestras (very different orchestras). I expect to attend both.
- Eric Kujawsky conducts the Redwood Symphony, Sunday, February 16, 2025 at 2 p.m. in San Mateo. This is a volunteer orchestra...and they're on their third traversal of the complete Mahler symphonies. Alex Ross spoke well of them some years ago.
- Esa-Pekka Salonen conducts the San Francisco Symphony, June 12, 13, and 14. This will be Salonen's last concert as the music director of SFS. Yes, you should be up in arms over his premature departure.
