San Francisco Symphony

The Dresden Staatskapelle possesses one of the most hallowed musical traditions among the world’s great orchestras: its lineage of conductors includes Schütz, Wagner, Karl Böhm, and Herbert Blomstedt, among others. Under conductor Daniel Harding, the Staatskapelle presents a magnificent evening pairing Beethoven’s Fourth Piano Concerto (featuring renowned pianist Rudolf Buchbinder) with Brahms’s richly hued Second Symphony.
