Ring in the new year with style!  Schubert's Fifth Symphony, an early masterpiece of consummate charm and irresistible melody, is paired with Dmitri Shostakovitch's bright and witty First Piano Concerto featuring San Francisco's own Robert Schwartz.  And what would the holiday season be without a little Georg Frederic Handel?  We think so too, and present his delightful Trumpet Concerto in G minor with Debut Artist Jeff Strong.
