Maestro Ben, the SFCO All-Stars, and Sphinx Virtuoso Hannah White ring in new possibilities with the classical hit, Vivaldi’s “Spring”.

Rounding out the program is Astor Piazzolla’s “Spring” from The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires and an orchestral arrangement of “Mother Chords” by BMI Foundation Composer-in-Residence at the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra, Michael Gilbertson from his Pulitzer Prize-nominated piece Quartet.

Hannah White’s performance is in partnership with the Sphinx Organization Soloist Program.
