THREE B's:
Beethoven, Brahms and Belinda

Celebrating the 175th birthday of Johannes Brahms

SAN FRANCISCO CHAMBER ORCHESTRA
BENJAMIN SIMON, CONDUCTOR

Beethoven: Septet op. 20
Belinda Reynolds: Serenade [world premiere]
Brahms: Serenade No. 2 in A major op. 16

A seldom-heard chamber music masterpiece by Beethoven leads the parade of B’s in this reduced-violin program. Eclectic and electrifying Belinda Reynolds follows with a brand new "Serenade", inspired by Brahms’ superb "Serenade #2". This concert, filled with woodwinds and lower strings, will warm your heart and soothe your soul... trust me, you won’t miss the fiddles at all! And a happy 175th birthday to you, Herr Brahms.
