Press Release: San Francisco Chamber Orchestra: IN PRAISE OF LOVE

Saturday October 24, 2015 - 01:08:00 PM

Free Concert on Sunday

On their first Main Stage program of the season, concertmaster Robin Sharp takes center stage to perform Leonard Bernstein's 1954 Serenade, inspired by Plato's famous symposium on the nature of love. An earlier experiment in sound and color was Claude Debussy's 1904 Danses Sacrée et Profane, written for harp and strings. Three short, captivating works for multiple percussionists round out this wide-ranging program.
