SAN BERNARDNO, CA— Haven’t found that perfect gift for Mom? San Bernardino Symphony Association Board of Directors President Donna Marie Minano has a suggestion.
Says Minano, “Why not start Mother’s Day early on Saturday, May 10, with the Pacific Trio in a very special 3 p.m. matinee concert! As a mother myself, I know how much spending time with my family uplifts my heart, and this is a unique and thoughtful way to celebrate any Mom who loves beautiful music.”
Comprised of world-renowned cellist John Walz, violinist Roger Wilke, and pianist Edith Orloff, the Pacific Trio has been praised by the Los Angeles Times as “one of the best.” The May 10 repertoire will include Beethoven’s Trio in Bb, Op. 11, Dvorak’s “Dumky” Trio, Op. 90, Rachmaninoff’s Vocalise, Brahms’ Hungarian Dance #6, and Gershwin’s Suite from “Porgy and Bess.” This ensemble concert will be performed at the historic San Bernardino Valley College Auditorium.
While multi-concert bundled tickets are the most economical way to enjoy the SBSO performance year, single concert tickets are also available at $20-$100 per seat, with student seats priced at $15 with an accompanying adult.
Concert tickets may be purchased online or by calling the Symphony office at (909) 381-5388 Monday through Friday between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Venue box office sales are also planned prior to all concert performances, but the availability of seats can never be guaranteed so securing tickets early is always highly suggested.
The historic San Bernardino Valley College Auditorium is located at 701 S. Mt. Vernon Avenue in San Bernardino. Free parking is available adjacent to the venue for all concert performances. Doors open one hour prior to concert time and a reception follows each concert.
