California Youth Symphony at Mondavi Center
The California Youth Symphony, under the direction of Maestro Leo Eylar, begins its 60th anniversary season with a special concert at the Mondavi Center on the campus of UC Davis - 9399 Old Davis Rd. Davis at 3:00pm on Sunday, November 13. CYS has accepted a special invitation from the renowned Festival of New American Music, Sacramento State University, to present a full program at the Mondavi Center which will feature the world premiere of Subterranean River by celebrated California composer Stephen Blumberg. Blumberg has created this captivating piece especially for the California Youth Symphony. It draws its inspiration, according to the composer, "from moving water, sometimes tranquil, sometimes rushing, even torrential" An additional feature of the concert will be the Cello Concerto by William Walton, with rising young star Eunice Kim as soloist. Eunice won the 2011 California Youth Symphony Young Artist Competition at Stanford University last spring. The Concerto is one of Walton's most luxuriant and romantic scores, eloquently poetic. The program will include two additional pieces: Aaron Copland's famous Billy the Kid Ballet Suite, which draws on American Western themes and combines them with Copland's brilliant orchestration; and Leonard Bernstein's stunning Symphonic Suite from On the Waterfront. The concert will be repeated the following Sunday, November 20 at 2:30 p.m. at the Flint Center on the campus of DeAnza College, 21250 Stevens Creek Blvd, Cupertino. The November 13 Mondavi concert is free admission, underwritten by the Festival of New American Music.
