Yefim Bronfman joins Esa-Pekka Salonen and the SF Symphony for Ludwig van Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto, known for its dramatic opening movement, lyrical and reverential second, and jubilant finale. Anders Hillborg’s Kongsgaard Variations takes a few bars of Beethoven as the basis for a dreamy string work extolling the virtues of music and wine, while Richard Strauss’ Symphony for Winds brims with youthful melodies and a charming sense of ease.
