Bold innovation and exceptional virtuosity converge to reflect the many ways music can illuminate. Two of San Francisco’s shining composers premiere works inspired by New Century’s spirit, honoring its past while imagining new possibilities. Joseph Bologne’s vibrant violin concerto restores a long-overlooked brilliance to the spotlight, and Tchaikovsky’s Souvenir de Florence culminates in a rich cascade of melody and emotion. Each piece offers its own light, forming a constellation of artistry, legacy, and brilliance.
