Guest conductor Christopher Rountree leads orchestra and soloists in two symphonies and a “tele-concerto.” The concert begins with Leonard Bernstein’s Symphony No. 1 (“Jeremiah”) featuring mezzo-soprano Heather Johnson, and closes with Charles Ives’ Symphony No. 2, a popular work that incorporates familiar American tunes. In between, the orchestra premieres The Moon in La Jolla, a “tele-concerto” by UCSD doctoral candidate Yeung-ping Chen with soloist Scott Paulson on carillon joining the orchestra via Internet from UCSD’s Geisel Library.
