Bach-inspired Mendelssohn in San Francisco
An exquisite rendition of Mendelssohn's Lobgesang makes one wonder why the work is not part of the regular repertoire.
A speedy Beethoven Ninth disappoints in San Francisco
Beethoven’s call to joy and brotherhood left much to be desired if not for a fantastic chorus in the final movement.
SF Symphony Chorus are the shining stars of this “Resurrection”
Not a single note, nor a single orchestral member, is superfluous in MTT's interpretation of Mahler's Second Symphony.
A fabulous night On the Town
Bernstein's On the Town is luxuriously cast, crisply played, and impressively danced in a much-more-than-semi-staged production at the San Francisco Symphony.
Excellent Peter Grimes in San Francisco
Music Director Michael Tilson Thomas deserves credit for this excellent semi-staged version of Britten's Peter Grimes performed with the San Francisco Symphony at Davies Symphony Hall.
San Francisco Symphony: Bates and Beethoven
Michael Tilson Thomas leads the San Francisco Symphony and Chorus in Mason Bates’ explosive Liquid Interface and Beethoven’s Mass in C.
