ECHO Chamber Orchestra: There and Back Again

ECHO Chamber Orchestra begins its fifth season on September 22 with “There and Back Again” — a concert of four delightfully contrasting works at the First Presbyterian Church of San Anselmo.

The 7:30 pm program will include:

* Rachmaninoff’s Vocalise featuring soprano Wendy Loder,

* City Suite, a world premiere,

* Nonet, an 1849 work by the little-known Louise Farrenc, and

* the Third Symphony of Franz Schubert.

City Suite is a collaboration between ECHO Conductor Daniel Canosa and bass player/composer Kevin Gordon. “It was written specifically for the ECHO Chamber Orchestra and is loosely based on a baroque suite with each movement inspired by a different city,” said Gordon.

A complimentary wine reception and art exhibition will take place after the performance.

Tickets are $15-$35 and available online and at the door prior to the concert.

2019-20 Season

Under the leadership of Music Director and Conductor Daniel Canosa, ECHO has garnered accolades for its artistry and collaborative, community-minded programming. ECHO’s 2019-20 season continues on February 16 with a commissioned work by San Francisco composer Belinda Reynolds paired with a Mozart Piano Concerto featuring pianist Laura Magnani; and on June 14 the orchestra plays music by the Brazilian flutist and composer Léa Freire.
