Description
Kurt Rohde Concertino with Guest Artist Axel Strauss
Left Coast Chamber Ensemble welcomes Rome Prize winner Kurt Rohde, our founding artistic director, back home to San Francisco after a year spent composing in Italy. Among the works he wrote while abroad is a concertino dedicated to violinist Axel Strauss. We are fortunate to present Strauss and the dynamic percussionist Chris Froh in this new piece. The other works on the program, alternately brilliant and warm, include music showcasing Stacey Pelinka's flute playing as well as star turns for clarinetist Jerry Simas. And we can promise that Bresnick's meltingly beautiful *** will sweep you off your feet.

Green Room
The Green Room, located on the second floor of the Veterans Building, echoes the building facade with five sets of glass doors opening to a russet tiled 138-foot long loggia facing City Hall. The 28-foot high ivory and gold leafed ceiling of the room is graced with five 24-lamp chandeliers. Entry alcoves lead to double doors at either end of the room and the north alcove has a built in wet-bar. Originally designed as a lounge for World War I veterans, the room now serves as a performance and reception hall. Several concert and lecture series are held in the Green Room each year, as well as dinners, receptions, fashion shows, recitals, conferences and meetings. The room is also a prime location for fashion photography, video and movie shoots.Post a Countdown Widget
