Vote Luscious on November 6.

San Diego, CA (October 11, 2012) – Election Day just got Luscious… San Diego Symphony members are coming to the rescue this November 6 – to help lighten election tension by playing a few tunes and spreading a touch of whimsy.

On this eve – elect to be at Anthology – where the politics of Noise rules and San Diego Symphony members cut loose from the classical music status quo. Attendees can exercise their right to vote by applause for their favorite artist(s) of the evening while enjoying Anthology’s outstanding fine-tuned cuisine.

On the program….
Honoring Claude Debussy’s 150th birthday this year -– the first movement from the great composer’s “String Quartet” in G Minor will be performed.

Principal flutist Rose Lombardo will perform Jacques Ibert’s Debussy-esque “Pièce for Solo Flute.”

Baritone Mark Wischkaemper will perform Arnold Schoenberg’s chamber version of Gustav Mahler’s “Songs of a Wayfarer.”

Then…. “An Apologia” from the Big Bad Wolf. Based on the composer, Jon Deak’s actual wolf encounter while on expedition in Alaska, bassist Jory Herman will perform Deak’s irreverent theatrical piece, “B.B. Wolf: An Apologia,” with monologue by Richard Hartshorne.

Maintaining the irreverent continuity – Michael Daugherty’s Stravinsky inspired, theatrical riff “Dead Elvis.” Scored with the same instrumentation as Stravinsky’s “L’Histoire du Soldat,” Daugherty’s “Dead Elvis” tells the story of a rock star who sells out to Hollywood and Vegas for wealth and fame. In this special presentation, bassoonist Ryan Simmons will perform in character as Elvis, with classical ensemble accompaniment.

And interspersed throughout the evening – luscious multi-media to float the imagination; to include everything from classics to contemporary to the obscure.
