San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra - Free Spring Concert / Open Rehearsal
Performance @ Park Presidio UMC presents San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra - Free Spring Concert / Open Rehearsal, Friday, May 20, 2016 - 7:00 - 9:00 pm. Premier of new music by local composers. Park Presidio United Methodist Church (4301 Geary @ 7th). In comfortable friendly venue in historic church, with wonderful acoustics. Free. Donations accepted. No one turned away for lack of funds.
Includes Harry Bernsteins lovable "Quartetto Amabile", featuring the sensuous strings of the ensemble. A rendezvous of a decidedly animated nature will be provide by Lisa Scola Prosek, in her spirited "Mantilla (A Game Played with Cow Chips)". Plangent-yet-pungent meetings will also be struck up in Michael Cookes phantasmagorical "Fantasy in D(ish)", where every player manifests an independent union. Davide Verotta will offer the collaboration of virtuosi, in a diverting and resonant "Divertimento per Piano, Violin e Orchestra"; while Mark Alburger evokes the many loves of Alma Maria Schindler Mahler Gropius Werfel, via a dizzyingly retro-post-minimalist/modernist "Eight Waltzes", from his opera celebrating and denigrating the titular Austro-American composer-socialite.
John Beemans "Ishi: Scene III" wraps up this evening of assignations, in cross-cultural diversities and unities that will please the ear and elevate the heart.
Convenient to nearby excellent eateries. Go out for early dinner, walk to concert.
Public Transportation: Muni 38. Parking on street, in residential neighborhood and SFMTA lot, 324 8th Avenue. Pay-yourself parking at Smart & Final parking lot on 7th between Geary & Clement.
