Steve Hackman, conductor San Diego Symphony Orchestra Steve Hackman’s newest production celebrates and elevates the power of women by combining pop's Queen with classical music's King: Beethoven and Beyoncé. Beethoven's Symphony No. 7, the symphonic repertoire's most joyful and pulsing celebration of dance, is the canvas onto which Hackman seamlessly interweaves 15 of Beyoncé's most popular songs spanning her entire catalog, including, “Girls,” “Crazy in Love,” “Sorry,” “Cuff It,” “Single Ladies,” and “Texas Hold 'Em.” The production’s emotional peak features the soulful union of two of the most recognizable melodies from each composer: Beyoncé’s “Halo” and the hauntingly beautiful second movement from Beethoven’s seventh symphony. Hackman brings with him three powerhouse female soloists and a band featuring drums, guitar/keys and bass. Steve Hackman’s "Beethoven X Beyoncé" is a SoundFuse Production.

Thomas Guggeis, conductor Marc-André Hamelin, piano San Diego Symphony Orchestra BRAHMS: Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor, Op. 15 DVORÁK: Symphony No. 7 in D minor, Op. 70, B. 141 Music and memory have always been close companions; you cannot have one without the other. Brahms’s First Piano Concerto, a work of symphonic vastness and one of its composer’s greatest masterpieces, was written out of his burning grief at the early death of his mentor Robert Schumann and his desire to write a piece that would preserve the older composer’s memory for ever. Dvorák’s Seventh Symphony sprang from his intense longing for the freedom and independence of his native Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), and his passionate desire to commemorate those brave spirits who sacrificed so much in the cause of their beloved country.
