Remembrance & Rejuvenation

Daniel Stewart, Maestro and Music Director of the Symphony, looks forward to welcoming back audiences for a night of classical strings that’s sure to enlighten to community. The concert boasts iconic works such as Barber’s elegiac Adagio for Strings, 16th century fire from Arcangelo Corelli, Tchaikovsky’s rapturous masterpiece, the Serenade for Strings, and the contemporary brilliance of New York composer and Juilliard alum, Jessie Montgomery.

Stewart eagerly awaits the arrival of in-person experiences again, stating “We have so much to be grateful for and to look forward to this season, featuring over 300 years of musical inspiration and innovation, and performed by your world class Santa Cruz Symphony.”

“As musical artists, I believe we have a unique opportunity and responsibility to build and strengthen bridges by providing invaluable experiences into our most cathartic journeys and compassionate selves. It was therefore essential to me that we meet this moment and our re-emergence with ever greater purpose through our programming and collaborations. I hope you will find delight in fond memories and surprises alike, and listen deeply with us as we remember, discover, celebrate, and bring transformative moments to life, together, as one.”
