Mozart: A Birthday Celebration

With the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra, Benjamin Simon, Music Director, Featuring Pianist Paul Hersh

Come to a musical party in celebration of the 248th birthday of Johann Chrysostom Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This delightful evening will be hosted by Benjamin Simon, and will feature the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra ("a smashing success" San Francisco Chronicle) and the Bay Area's wittiest pianist, Paul Hersh. Enjoy a Mozart piano concerto and a divertimento for small orchestra. Taste our delicious birthday cake, and perhaps win a special Mozart door prize. Immerse yourself in the "Mozart Effect" and see your math abilities increase. Hear some beautiful chamber music as well as a few of those "naughty" letters Mozart wrote to his girlfriends. Wear a powdered wig or period costume and be eligible for great prizes.
