Optional San Francisco Symphony Outing
Friday, June 12, 2015
Beethoven’s Missa solemnia
San Francisco Symphony, co-produced with the Los Angeles Philharmonic
Davies Symphony Hall, Grove Street, between Van Ness and Franklin
Conductor/Performers: Michael Tilson Thomas conductor, Joélle Harvey soprano, Sasha Cooke mezzo-soprano, Tamara Mumford mezzo-soprano, Brandon Jovanovich tenor
Missa solemnia is one of Beethoven's last works, and one of his greatest. He labored over it for five years, then wrote on the completed score, "From the heart; may it go to the heart!" Michael Tilson Thomas reimagines Beethoven's epic Missa solemnis in semi-staged performances, a new telling of perhaps the composer's most personal and profound statement.
