Classical Music

The San Antonio Symphony League gave the money, repeating a gift it made to the musicians during their months-long strike.

Treviño chaired council's Arts and Culture Committee and served on the city-county task force that worked to stabilize the former San Antonio Symphony during a 2018 financial crisis.

The concert will be held during SAMA's free admission hours on Tuesday, June 20.

The production — which features a blend of classical music and sardonic comedy — is touring the United States for the first time.

In addition to performing with 20th-century masters and having his own music catalogued in multiple releases, the composer has been a decades-long creative catalyst for the Alamo City.

Gurwitz organizers Musical Bridges Around the World also announced that Scott Yoo will chair the competition's international committee of judges.

The sold-out production will transform the Carlos Alvarez Studio Theater into a gritty nightclub.

The percussion quartet will perform at Temple Beth-El Sunday as part of the San Antonio Chamber Music Society's 80th season.

The program to be performed on Nov. 18 and 19 will feature works by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst.

The production is directed by OSA Artistic Advisor Garnett Bruce, with music direction by Francesco Milioto.

Right now, the orchestra is working to rebuild and reconnect with the community.

'That's a decision by a group of people, but they cannot wipe out history, legacy, and heritage,' the orchestra's former music director Sebastian Lang-Lessing said of the Symphony Society's move.

The performances on June 2 and 3 showcase Leonard Bernstein, Arturo Márquez, Edward Elgar and others on the program.

Since his controversial firing in April as the San Antonio Symphony's music director emeritus, the maestro has been tirelessly meeting with city leaders.

The show is a co-production of OPERA San Antonio, the Boston Lyric Opera, the Atlanta Opera and Opera Omaha.

The performance at Alamo Heights Pool is intended to be listened to both above and below the water.

Given what's at stake for one of the city's artistic crown jewels, why is the mayor reluctant to weigh in?
