About this event

“Escape expresses going through something hard and then escaping into the world, nature and being free again.”  - Brannon Warn-Johnston, age 14

Dr. Yuchi Chou leads the orchestra in its season opener, Escape, featuring two works by award-winning Seattle teen composer Brannon Warn-Johnston. With a theme of beauty and struggle, this concert takes the audience on a journey into the wilderness, where Warn-Johnston goes backpacking with her violin and staff paper, to experience scorching heat, cool waters and hope. Completing the program is SFO’s own Liam Frye-Mason playing the beautiful and melodic Cello Concerto by Kurt Atterberg, followed by Sibelius’s triumphant Symphony No 2.
