Redwood Symphony closes the 2025 - 2026 season with a “Summer Classics” program featuring well-loved works by Beethoven, Mozart, and Prokofiev.
Prokofiev wrote the playful Overture on Hebrew Themes in New York in 1919 at the request of the Zimro Ensemble, a touring group of Russian-Jewish immigrant musicians.
Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 26, reimagined by Timo Andres, adds inventive cadenzas adapted for a chamber ensemble - while preserving the music’s beauty and charm. Louise Costigan-Kerns is a gifted pianist whose previous appearances with Redwood Symphony have been noted for their magical artistry.
Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1, composed after years of piano works and concertos, stands as a tribute to the traditions of Mozart and the still-living Haydn while showcasing Beethoven’s own startlingly independent spirit.
