THIS EVENT HAS NOW BEEN CANCELED.

Prokofiev’s mastery of cultural and political elements reaches its apotheosis in his visionary Symphony No. 5.; this monumental work also headlines the Santa Cruz Symphony’s fourth concert of the season: “Metamorphoses”, on March 28 and 29, 2020.

The program opens with Moncayo’s Huapango which celebrates zapateado dance traditions of Mexico, while Massenet’s breathtakingly beautiful Meditation from Thais and Saint-Saëns’ thrillingly virtuosic Introduction & Rondo Capriccioso will feature Klein String Competition 2nd prize winner Julian Rhee.

Join the Santa Cruz Symphony League for the fourth preview of the season at 4 p.m. for a reception at the home of Peter and Mary Ann Orr – 16 Hollins Drive, Santa Cruz.

Santa Cruz Maestro Daniel Stewart will have the opportunity to share insights about the concert, including discussion on composers Moncayo, Saint Saens, Massenet, and Prokofiev. Klein String Competition winner, Julian Rhee, will play excerpts from Saint Saens and Massenet.
