PAST CONCERTS

The 3-Bs, a double barreled performance

Musicians regard Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms as three of the greatest composers.  Our concert features music from all three of these great men.  Two of our compositions are double concertos - compositions for two solo instruments.  Featured are Amy Hiraga, violinist who plays professionally in the San Francisco Symphony, and Julian Brown, Concertmaster of SVS playing the Bach Double Violin Concerto.  Amy is the wife of Peter Wyrick, Associate Principal Cellist of the San Francisco Symphony and one of our previous soloists.  Peter joins the SVS cello section as his daughters, Mayumi Wyrick, violin soloist and Mariko Wyrick, cello soloist play the Brahms Double Concerto for Violin and Cello.  Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5, probably the most well-know and greatest symphonies of all time, completes this monumental performance.
