San Diego Chamber Orchestra Celebrates the New Year with Music for the Seasons

The San Diego Chamber Orchestra, under the direction of Jung-Ho Pak and joined by the compelling young violinist Lindsay Deutsch, will celebrate the seasons and a new year with their January concert, Music for the Seasons.

True to form, Maestro Pak will tuck some wonderful surprises into this concert. Eight beautifully descriptive and eclectic masterpieces, the most celebrated of which is Summer from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, will be performed. Also included will be Tchaikovsky's February - Shrovetide Festival from The Seasons, Piazzolla's Winter in Buenos Aires from The Four Seasons, Haydn's Welche Labung für die Sinne! from The Seasons, O'Connor's delightful Spring from The American Seasons which dances to a carefree fiddle, Boismortier's Air from The Four Seasons, Glazunov's Petit Adagio and Bacchanale from The Seasons, and Cage's Summer from The Seasons, an altogether different take on nature's seasons.

As a young artist in the dawn of her career, Ms. Deutsch has thrilled audiences throughout the U.S. and Canada with her energetic and passionate performances. Soprano Katherine Blumenthal, a promising young singer is also a guest artist for this concert, representing an ongoing collaboration between the San Diego Opera and the San Diego Chamber Orchestra.
