San Francisco Symphony To Host Annual ALL SAN FRANCISCO Concert
The All San Francisco Concert is a 45-year-strong tradition celebrating the people who work tirelessly to make the Bay Area a more just and equitable place.
Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen and the San Francisco Symphony launch their 2024–25 season with the annual All San Francisco Concert on Thursday, September 12, featuring SF Symphony Principal Harp Katherine Siochi in her SF Symphony solo debut.
The concert program features Jean Sibelius' patriotic Karelia Suite, Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, Claude Debussy's Danses sacrée et profane with Siochi as soloist, and Maurice Ravel's vivid Daphnis et Chloé, Suite No. 2.
The All San Francisco Concert is a 45-year-strong tradition celebrating the people who work tirelessly to make the Bay Area a more just and equitable place. This special San Francisco Symphony program is offered at a subsidized ticket price of $12 for Bay Area nonprofit, social services, and grassroots organizations. Founded by native San Franciscan, veteran philanthropist, and patron of the arts Ellen Magnin Newman, and led by an advisory committee of nonprofit and community leaders, the All San Francisco Concert is an important pillar of the San Francisco Symphony's ongoing work to make the Symphony an accessible, welcoming space for all Bay Area residents, regardless of income.
A limited number of $12 tickets will be available to the general public beginning Thursday, August 15, at sfsymphony.org.
In honor of its founder, the All San Francisco Concert also includes the presentation of the Ellen Magnin Newman Award.
