Gemma New, conductor Geneva Lewis, violin San Diego Symphony Orchestra MENDELSSOHN: Overture and Nocturne from A Midsummer Night's Dream, Op. 21 & 61 KORNGOLD: Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 35 MENDELSSOHN: Symphony No. 4 in A Major, Op. 90, "Italian" People have long been fascinated with exceptional talent and what prodigies represent about human potential. This program celebrates the brilliance of two extraordinary prodigies—Felix Mendelssohn and Erich Korngold—whose talents shaped the course of classical and film music. Mendelssohn dazzled the world at just 17 with the magical sparkle of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and his vibrant “Italian” Symphony—met with thunderous applause at its London premiere—bursts with color, joy and rhythmic energy. Korngold, declared a genius by Mahler at age 9, brought his gift to Hollywood, where he revolutionized film scoring. His sweeping, operatic style won two Oscars and later shaped his Violin Concerto, blending classical depth with Hollywood drama. It's a program of vivid storytelling brought to life through rich orchestration and expressive musical detail.

Multi-platinum artist Lee Brice is headed to San Diego for a different kind of show. For one night only, he’s trading the big stage for a sunset cruise, playing solo with just a guitar, a mic, and the stories behind the songs. Experience the music the way it was first written — stripped down, in a part-concert, part-conversation setting where Lee takes his time, talks to the crowd, and delivers a performance that you won’t forget. Come aboard for a buffet dinner, open bar, and panoramic views of the San Diego skyline for a night that’s more personal than anything you’d find in an arena. VIPs start the night off right with a meet and greet with Lee Brice, plus a signed photo and more exclusive perks. As the city lights glow, Lee turns the yacht into a listening room, where every lyric lands closer and every note carries further.
