The Philharmonic Orchestra performs in a concert featuring violin soloists Saarthak Shankavaram and An-Po Chen!
The San Jose Youth Symphony’s Philharmonic Orchestra, under the artistic leadership of Music Director and Conductor Yair Samet, presents its 2024-25 Season Finale Concert.
This premier orchestra, made up of the most advanced students in the San Jose Youth Symphony, will open the concert with George Gershwin’s Funny Face Overture, from the musical Funny Face, which featured Fred Astaire on Broadway, dancing for the first time in top hat and tails.
Featuring orchestra violinists as soloists — Saarthak Shankavaram and An-Po Chen — the orchestra will perform Sarasate’s virtuosic Navarra for Two Violins and Orchestra, a work inspired by Sarasate’s birthplace in the Navarre region of Spain. And then the concert will close with Beethoven‘s most well-known and dramatic works, his Fifth Symphony.
This promises to be a great treat for the whole family!
