2013-2014 Season
The Diablo Symphony Orchestra performs its 51st season. In a letter from Matilda Hofman, Music Director and Conductor:
| |
"I would like to welcome you all to an exciting year ahead with the Diablo Symphony. The season is full of beloved orchestral works, as well as some less commonly performed pieces to spark your interest. One primary idea informs the music you will hear this season- how words and stories have been a continual source of inspiration to composers. We are delighted to be welcoming actor Bella Merlin in our November concert to narrate some of the poems which inspired the works on this concert. In February the marvelous bass Gregory Stapp will not only will he be singing a selection of arias, but will also be narrating Peter and the Wolf. The Fratello Marionettes will be joining this production with their magical puppets. The theme for this season also celebrates our young and growing Community Outreach Program. We are delighted to be able to offer a free family concert this season, as well as a family-friendly program in our regular season. Watch out for other activities too- we will be bringing concerts out to schools and exploring other ways to fill the Walnut Creek/Sycamore Valley community with music. I look forward to your participation in this adventure! "
