Description
Igor Stravinsky: Suite No. 1 for Small OrchestraAmy X Neuburg: Hunger Strike (2016) [World Premiere]
L. V. Beethoven: Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92
Experience Amy X Neuburg's "fabulous singing" and "exhilarating originality" in her newest work, Hunger Strike, commissioned by the SFCO for performance with Bay Area string quartet Squid Inc. Featuring vocals by the composer herself, Hunger Strike is paired with Stravinsky's delightful Suite No. 1 for Small Orchestra, composed in 1925. Beethoven's revolutionary Seventh Symphony was cutting edge in 1812, a brilliant experiment in sound and color that helped shape the future of classical music.
