The Diablo Symphony opens its 2024–2025 season on Sunday, October 20, at 2:00 p.m. at Walnut Creek’s Lesher Center for the Arts, with its traditional family concert, this year featuring four composers who explore the colors of the orchestra and use them to paint pictures and tell stories. Different instruments turn into animals and characters in Sergei Prokofiev’s “Peter and the Wolf”; an ogre and rescued princesses are conjured up in Igor Stravinsky’s “Lullaby” and “Finale” from The Firebird; and spaces of beauty, tranquility, and energy are painted in Richard Strauss’s “Sunrise” from Also Sprach Zarathustra and Astor Piazzolla’s flowing tango “Oblivion” (arranged by the DSO’s own Dean Boysen). And winners of the DSO’s Yen Liang Young Artist Competition will perform concerti on their respective instruments, the oboe and the marimba! Cayden Bloomer will perform Ralph Vaughan Williams’s Concerto for Oboe and Strings, sharing the stage with Justin Griffith in Sergei Golovko’s Concerto for Marimba.
