Summertime is almost here! Warm nights, wine on the terrace before the concert, space to catch up with friends and family…
Join SCSO for a program of music that celebrates the ease of summer! Travel with us to a moonlit beach in France with Debussy’s Clair de Lune, or to the hot Italian summer festivities in Tchaickovsky’s Cappricio Italien. Hear our very own star trumpet player Nelson Oakley perform Gershwin’s “Summertime” with us, and skip through the summer fields with Beethoven’s Pastoral symphony’s opening movement. All great parties end with a dance and this time we’ve chosen the Antiche Danza of Respighi and the wonderfully unhinged Samson and Delilah by Saint-Saens.
It’s going to be a wonderful night and a great concert to share with family and friends.
