The Poway Symphony Orchestra (PSO) is pleased to announce the opening of its 2022-23 season with a rare performance by Misha Dichter, an acclaimed pianist of world renown. The concert will take place on November 20, 2022, at 4 p.m. at the Poway Center for Per-forming Arts. The concert will feature two concertos: Beethoven’s “Emperor Concerto” and Gershwin’s “Concerto in F”. Conductor John LoPiccolo said that "It’s a very rare event in the classical music world to have two concertos performed in a single evening, and to have Mr. Dichter join our orchestra for these two concertos is an exceptional honor.” To open the concert, the orchestra will play the bright and sparkling “Festive Overture” by Shostakovich. Mr. Dichter has performed and recorded with some of the most illustrious conductors of the 20th and 21st centuries and he appeared as soloist with some of the major orchestras in Europe and the USA.

The San Diego Automotive Museum (SDAM) will be hosting its monthly Cars & Coffee community event on Sunday, December 18, from 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. This is an exciting way to get outside on Sunday at beautiful Balboa Park and see cars of all makes and models while enjoying coffee and donuts courtesy of Donald Sewell from GEICO. The community is invited to visit the Museum during Cars & Coffee for a discounted admission price ($10 before 10 a.m.) or partake in the completely free event outside with coffee and donuts (while supplies last) for guests to enjoy while browsing the wide array of vehicles. The public is also invited to bring their own cars to display in the parking lot for other spectators to enjoy. Car owners are encouraged to decorate their “sleigh” and Santa will be there to pick his favorite. The Elusive Luxuries: Supercars and the Thrill of the Chase Exhibit is on display until January 8, 2022. These supercars combine technical sophistication, exotic looks, high-top speed, quick acceleration, and a commanding presence, offering drivers unique and exhilarating experiences. Rare, exclusive, and expensive, supercars feature far more power and performance improvements than are necessary for everyday motoring, yet this very impracticality only heightens their appeal. Some featured vehicles include 1966 Bizzarrini P538, a 1982 Lamborghini Countach, a 2012 Lamborghini Aventador, a 2008 Lamborghini Murcielago, and the 1953 Bentley Mark VI Graber Drophead Coupé that won Best of Class at Pebble Beach this year. Future Cars & Coffee events are generally held on the third Sunday of each month. Please check the Museum’s website for the most up-to-date event information.
