SD Symphony Jacobs Masterworks: Lang Lang Plays Saint-Saëns
750 B Street, San Diego, 92101
Dutch conductor Otto Tausk leads Igor Stravinsky’s enchanting Firebird Suite. The program opens with Joey Rouken’s thought-provoking 365 —365 measures of beguiling twists and turns that take on different guises, from impressionist-like textures to minimalist passages, and references to pop and jazz. And at the end of work, listeners arrive exactly at the point where the piece started... not unlike a year cycle of 365 days. Lang Lang will be performing Camille Saint-Saëns' Piano Concerto No. 2.
