Lamorinda Village has been invited to the SF Symphony! We will attend the April 25th Open Rehearsal GIMENO CONDUCTS SHOSTAKOVICH & PROKOFIEV. For Shostakovich, Walton, and Prokofiev, cinematic assignments often found their way into their concert music—and vice versa. Drama abounds in Shostakovich's score for The Great Citizen, a fictionalized biopic about a Bolshevik hero. In his Third Symphony, Prokofiev recycles music from his yet-to-be-staged opera The Fiery Angel, a love story that traffics in demonic possession. Walton's searing and sumptuous Viola Concerto polarized early listeners but ended up launching his career. A pre-concert lecture hosted by Scott Foglesong will be presented from the stage at 9:00am–9:30am. There will be a 30 minute break and then the rehearsal begins at 10 AM.
