Broadcast on Classical KDFC
This new monthly broadcast series—the fourth Sunday of the month—features eight California Symphony concerts from recent years, led by Music Director Donato Cabrera.
Highlighting each performance is a work by one of our “Young American Composers in Residence”, the unique opportunity that allows a composer a partnership with the orchestra for three years.
Hosted by KDFC and with comments from Donato Cabrera, it’s a chance to hear old favorites from Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms and Grieg mixed with brand new works, played by the ensemble they were written for.
On episode eight:
CONDUCTOR Donato Cabrera
GUEST ARTIST Annie Wu, flute
COMPOSER Kevin Puts (1996-1999)
Mozart Symphony No. 1
Puts Flute Concerto (commissioned by Californians Joe & Bette Hirsch)
Haydn Symphony No. 104
