Tambourin Men
Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Bob Dylan notwithstanding, we'll start the evening with some (old French Dance) Tambourin-inspired works. Also, music by Franz and Franz (Schubert and Haydn that is): Herbert Blomstedt leads the San Francisco Symphony in Schubert's "Rosamunde" Overture; Leif-Ove Andsnes essays Haydn's Third Piano Concerto.
String soloists are featured prominently in our later hours, as cellist Janos Starker delivers Robert Schumann's tortured yet brilliant Cello Concerto in A Minor. We'll also hear from Russian composer (and close friend of Prokofieff) Nikolai Medtner with his Violin Sonata No. 2 in G, featuring pianist Geoffrey Tozer and violinist Lydia Mordkovitch.
