UC Davis Symphony Orchestra Celebrates 50 Years
The UC Davis Symphony Orchestra, under the expert direction of D. Kern Holoman, celebrates the university’s centennial and its own 50th anniversary with a Golden Jubilee Gala perfor- mance at 8 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 23, in Jackson Hall of the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for
the Performing Arts. Jorja Fleezanis, concertmaster of the Minnesota Orchestra and former associate concertmaster of the San Francisco Symphony, joins the UCDSO for Chausson’s “Poème,” a work epitomizing the French Romantic flair for passion, sensitivity and fiery virtuosity. D. Kern Holoman also conducts Brahms’s lush and moving Symphony No. 4, and Jeffrey Thomas brings the University Chorus and Alumni Chorus to the stage to lead a collaborative performance of Beethoven’s Gloria from the “Missa solemnis.”
