Enjoy two loge seats at the Blomstedt Conducts Beethovan, Wagner and Lidholm concert on April 12, 2013 at San Francisco Davies Symphony Hall (Grove Street, between Van Ness and Franklin Streets, 94102).  Includes a pre-concert talk one hour before with Conducter Herbert Blomstedt at 6:30 p.m..

Expect fire and passion in this program of stirring tension. The dramatic heights to which Wagner aspired were lofty. Indeed, in composing the opera Tristan und Isolde, he was clear about his intent: “I shall erect a memorial to this loveliest of all dreams in which, from the first to the last, love shall, for once, find utter repletion.” Beethoven’s ferociously powerful Third Symphony holds a revered place in the canon for its depth and breadth of emotion.
