SAINT-SAENS POULENC
DELIUS We celebrate the 150th anniversary of the birth of British composer, Frederick Delius, in a performance of 'Daybreak' from his Florida Suite. The concert also features Jonathan Dimmock, a frequent organist for the San Francisco Symphony performing two major works by French composers Francis Poulenc and Camille Saint-Saens. Poulenc's Organ Concerto is rich with contemporary harmonies, vivid rhythms and haunting melodies. The 'Organ Symphony' of Saint-Saens is a triumphant work whose themes were featured in the movie "Babe." For tickets and information
Annual education program provided free to 4th & 5th grade students throughout Santa Cruz County & an affordable concert for the whole family. In the two weeks prior to a free concert, Symphony musicians visit classrooms to introduce students to the instruments of the orchestra, and to help maximize their concert experience. Members of the Santa Cruz County Youth Symphony play alongside their adult Symphony counterparts, creating the largest philharmonic orchestra on the central coast. The event is presented in a highly accessible style, using elements of humor, movement and participation. The concert program is presented the weekend following the Youth concerts as affordable Family concerts in Santa Cruz and Watsonville. Following the concert, there will be a special "Meet the Instruments" event. Audience members had the chance to meet with musicians and learn about orchestra instruments. Over 4000 students and their teachers attended the four concerts at the Santa Cruz Civic and Watsonville's Mello Center. For more information on the Youth program, email info@santacruzsymphony.org.

Then we proudly welcome the return of Van Cliburn Gold Medalist, Jon Nakamatsu to perform Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto. This inventive work's intimate exchange between piano and orchestra offers a unique glimpse at the composer's tender and graceful side. The concert concludes with Johannes Brahms's final majestic Symphony in E minor.
