It's a joy to celebrate 60 years of psenting great music to Peninsula audiences.  We'll open our 60th season on a majestic note with Grieg’s mighty Piano Concerto, featuring Jeffrey Siegel, whose lyrical and compelling piano performances have made him a Peninsula Symphony audience favorite for many years.  He is the quintessential performer for Grieg’s powerful and poetic concerto, beloved for its memorable melodies and gripping passion.

This will be an entire evening of great Romantic masterpieces, with, in addition to the Grieg Concerto, Dvorak’s 8th Symphony (in G), a triumphal work of great expssive force and excitement, and Dvorak's own distinctive brand of warm-hearted personality.  Sibelius’s enchanting tone poem, Spring Song begins this program of Romantic masters – join us for Grieg, Dvorak and Sibelius to open the 60th Season of the Peninsula Symphony.

We look forward to performing for you all throughout this special year - be with us for the fiery music of Spain (with the great guitarist Angel Romero) in January, three amazing Bay Area musical stars in March, and the overwhelming and unforgettable Carmina Burana in May.
