Seattle Symphony: Brahms Symphony No. 3

Susan Gulkis Assadi, viola

Seattle Symphony

Strauss – Don Quixote
Brahms – Symphony No. 3

Strauss’ evocative Don Quixote explores a world of wit and whimsy highlighted by the solo talent of Seattle Symphony principals Susan Gulkis Assadi and Efe Baltacıgil. This colorful score pairs perfectly with Brahms’ popular Symphony No. 3, perhaps the composer's most personal and intimate work.

Pre-concert talk 1 hour prior to performance in the S. Mark Taper Foundation Auditorium. Free with ticket purchase.
