Seattle Festival Orchestra is proud to present the first of our two performances in our spring concert weekend! As always, we start the weekend with our Family Friendly performance, which will feature:Yifeng Yvonne Yuan - Ephemeral Bloom
Elgar - Cello Concerto with soloist Eric Schindler
Brahms - Symphony No. 3
Ephemeral Bloom is a new work by composer Yifeng Yvonne Yuan, inspired by the fleeting life and death of a magnolia flower at midnight. In just one night, the buds awake with the arrival of the spring breeze, and after a gentle drizzle, they vanish without a trace. Yvonne draws inspiration from the sound of nature and the ritualistic practice of humans before language was invented. Seattle Festival Orchestra presents their final concert of the season opening with Ephemeral Bloom, followed by Seattle youth soloist Eric Schindler playing Elgar’s challenging Cello Concerto and Johannes Brahm’s enigmatic Symphony No 3. The orchestra will be led by music director and conductor Bobby Collins.
Our Family Friendly performance on Saturday, May 18th is a special show just for our younger audience that’s geared to maximize their enjoyment while providing a fulfilling musical program for the whole family. Kid noises and dancing are welcome. Our family-friendly concerts are shorter in duration to keep things fun for everyone.
