pherank Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) I received the new San Francisco Symphony season booklet in the mail the other day. The Mariinsky Orchestra will be in town for two nights this fall. Ballet-goers will likely have heard some or all of the 1st program's music. And the 2nd program will appeal to ballet-goers as well. Lots of good music. "Under the baton of Valery Gergiev, Russia’s illustrious Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra and “powerhouse Russian pianist” (Los Angeles Times) Denis Matsuev celebrate the astounding diversity of one of the most revolutionary composers in history. Hear a sonic panorama of some of Stravinsky’s most iconic works, including his scintillating prodigy piece, Fireworks, his strikingly original Symphony in C, and the rapturous ballet score that launched the young composer to international fame, The Firebird.
