SUMMARY:California Symphony: Tchaikovsky Passion
DESCRIPTION:California Symphony’s March concerts\, conducted by Arti
 stic and Music Director Donato Cabrera\, feature music that is full of
  emotion and high drama\, concluding with Tchaikovsky’s powerful fin
 al symphony\, Symphony No. 6. The concerts begin with the world premie
 re of Composer-in-Residence Saad Haddad’s second commission for the 
 orchestra. Haddad’s music frequently delves into the relationship be
 tween the West and the East by transferring the performance techniques
  of traditional Arab instruments to Western symphonic instruments. Pia
 nist David Fung\, praised by The Washington Post for his “poetic and
  exquisitely sculpted interpretations\,” makes his California Sympho
 ny debut as soloist in 20th century Polish composer Grażyna Bacewicz
 ’s Piano Concerto. Bacewicz incorporates Polish folk themes in this 
 work which features intense moments of drama and a demanding and virtu
 osic solo piano part. Tchaikovsky’s sixth and final symphony is also
  known as the “Pathétique\,” but the composer originally called 
 it the “Passionate.” Grand\, sweeping\, and with themes recognizab
 le from movies and pop culture\, it is one of the Russian melody maste
 r’s most popular and frequently performed works.\nCalifornia Symphon
 y takes the stuffiness out of the concert experience: Take selfies at 
 the photo booth\, order a signature cocktail\, and sip at your seat. T
 ickets include a free 30-minute pre-concert talk by award-winning inst
 ructor Scott Foglesong\, starting one hour before the show.
