Music Director Laureate Michael Tilson Thomas and the SF Symphony paint scenes of courtly dances, charming Italian salon music, and the timeless beauty of spring. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Three German Dances, K.605 opens the concert with refined flirtatiousness and Tilson Thomas’ Notturno, featuring flutist Demarre McGill, evokes the virtuosic masterpieces of a bygone era. Robert Schumann’s First Symphony depicts a world in full bloom through its opening fanfare, merry scherzo, and sumptuous final movement.
