The celebrated pipa performer Wu Man joins the orchestra for a world premiere by UCSD faculty member Lei Liang. In the second half, the past is unraveled, from the complexity of Arnold Schoenberg’s twelve-tone music to the lush voice of his brother-in-law, Alexander Zemlinsky, and finally culminating in the rarely-heard original version of Schumann’s Symphony no. 4, a masterpiece of the Romantic era. A miniature masterpiece by Julia Perry, a recently rediscovered mid-20th century icon, opens the program.
