UPCOMING SUMMER CONCERTS AT THE RADY SHELL AT JACOBS PARK

OPENING NIGHT WITH THE SAN DIEGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

4TH OF JULY: AMERICA IN SONG WITH THE SAN DIEGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

The evening opens with Ginastera’s Four Dances from Estancia, the final dance being the spirited “Malambo.”

Wynton Marsalis – one of the greatest and most celebrated trumpet musicians of all time – created a trumpet concerto that will receive its San Diego debut, at the hands of trumpet extraordinaire Paul Merkelo. Dukas’ The Sorcerer’s Apprentice conjures the excitement and magic made famous by Disney’s Fantasia, and Debussy’s La mer brings a beautiful ode to the sea, a perfect selection for the waterfront venue.

Maestro Ted Sperling’s new “4th of July: America in Song” brings audiences together to share what is unique and wonderful about the American spirit, through our country’s wide and storied musical heritage. Featured songs include the Gershwin’s’ “Summertime,” Bob Dylan’s “The Times They Are a-Changin’”, Dolly Parton’s “Coat of Many Colors,” the Louis Armstrong classic “Basin Street Blues,” and many more singularly American songs. Blending the music that has enchanted generations of Americans, contemporary Broadway and Americana anthems we all love, this 4th of July event is not to be missed.

June 27 | 7:30PM

BEETHOVEN BY THE BAY

July 4 | 7:30PM

TCHAIKOVSKY SPECTACULAR

July 13 | 7:30PM

August 30 | 7:30PM

This annual summer favorite bringing Beethoven’s Coriolan Overture to life, along with Felix Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto, performed by violinist Clara-Jumi Kang. The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park is the ideal setting in which to hear the program’s final work - Beethoven’s Symphony No. 6, “Pastoral,” – in which the composer marked birdsongs in the score, just one element in this symphony that helps to evoke the countryside that inspired it.

Conductor Stephanie Childress makes her San Diego Symphony debut in the orchestra’s annual favorite.

Featuring many of the composer’s most celebrated works, the program also includes Chopin’s romantic Piano Concerto No. 1, delivered by Austrian pianist Kiron Atom Tellian, and culminates in the 1812 Overture, with a pyrotechnic display in the skies above The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park and the San Diego Bay.
