Beethoven in the Presidio: Preview Concert

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Music Director Daniel Hope and New Century Chamber Orchestra join the global celebrations of Beethoven's 250th birthday with "Beethoven in the Presidio," a special two-day event at the newly-renovated Presidio Theatre in San Francisco. Recently appointed as the President of the Beethoven-Haus Bonn in Germany, Daniel Hope welcomes Simone Dinnerstein for her second appearance as artist-in-residence and GRAMMY Award-winning cellist Lynn Harrell for two unique programs.

Prior to the official performances in San Francisco, all three artists will appear as soloists with the orchestra in a special preview concert that features Beethoven's Triple Concerto in C Major, Op. 56 alongside Beethoven's Symphony No. 1 in C Major, Op. 21.

"The worldwide attention surrounding the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth is testament to the enduring inspiration and delight that his music provides to audiences everywhere. We look forward to participating in the celebrations with our own special tribute here in the Bay Area," said Music Director Daniel Hope. "It is also an honor for us to be a part of the "Violins of Hope" residency that same weekend performing music that is particularly close to my heart following years of studying and preserving rarely-heard and forgotten works written by composers during the Holocaust."

$30 to $67.50.
