Classical Series - Redwood Symphony September 19, 2010

The Redwood Symphony is an innovative community orchestra known for exemplary musicianship and for introducing local audiences to edgier, more modern music as well as thoughtful presentation of the classics. Founded in 1985, as an all-volunteer orchestra devoted to ambitious and contemporary repertoire, Redwood Symphony has performed works ranging from Mahler and Beethoven to Frank Zappa and Charles Ives in an informal and fun format.

The 21st season will include an ambitious, eclectic mix of beloved classics by composers such as Mahler, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Brahms, as well as the most innovative and entertaining music of our own time, sprinkled with pops, jazz, and film scores. This special season will feature a 20th birthday celebration for the orchestra, an exciting premiere, outstanding soloists, a special program of Jewish theater music and an afternoon Family Concert targeted at exposing young listeners to musical works that may change their lives forever.
