The San Francisco Symphony (SFS), one of the United States' leading orchestras, has been an indomitable presence in the classical music landscape since its inception in 1911. Under the baton of several visionary music directors, including the esteemed Michael Tilson Thomas who served from 1995 until 2020, the Symphony has not only championed a diverse repertoire but has also been committed to innovative programming. This commitment has transcended the traditional boundaries of classical music, resulting in dynamic collaborations and recordings, such as the famed "S&M2" concert with metal band Metallica, which infused the energy of rock with the gravitas of orchestral performance.
Throughout its illustrious history, the San Francisco Symphony has received international acclaim for its artistic excellence, vibrant performances, and an impressive discography that showcases its versatility. The ensemble's recent releases demonstrate its dedication to a wide range of musical offerings, from the complex structures of Bartók's Piano Concertos and the deep emotional landscapes of Berg's Violin Concerto and early songs to the bold live renditions of Wagner's Orchestral Works. Moreover, the SFS has been at the forefront of interpreting contemporary pieces, as evidenced by works like Nico Muhly's "Throughline" and Tilson Thomas's "From the Diary of Anne Frank & Meditations on Rilke." By embracing both the classics and the new, the San Francisco Symphony continues to build an enduring legacy that resonates with music lovers around the world.
