California Symphony
FOUR SEASONS
Saturday, November 6 at 7:30 PM
Sunday, November 7 at 4:00 PM

California Symphony presents FOUR SEASONS, an all-strings concert in which Bay Area native and violin virtuoso, Alexi Kenney, returns to lead the orchestra in George Walker’s hauntingly beautiful Lyric for Strings and as the soloist in Vivaldi’s iconic Four Seasons. The all-strings concert concludes with Jessie Montgomery’s Starburst plus Death and the Maiden, a piece that explores the range of human emotions, from dark and heavy to positive and optimistic. Originally written for quartet by Schubert, Mahler blew it up for string orchestra some 70 years later.
