Amidst their 20th Anniversary Celebration Season, the men of the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus present "Sensuous Summer Sounds: A Symphonic Celebration" at Masonic Auditorium, 1111 California at Taylor on Nob Hill in San Francisco on July 11 at 8pm and July 12 at 2pm. That's THIS WEEKEND! This dramatic, one-of-a-kind concert will feature the deliciously resonant sounds of San Francisco's favorite Chorus, accompanied by the Redwood Symphony. Yes! An entire symphony orchestra! Highlights in a concert chock-full of everyone's favorite melodies will be "Stranger in Paradise," "And This Is My Beloved," "Full Moon and Empty Arms," and scores of other rhapsodic tunes guaranteed to have you leaving Masonic Auditorium humming your favorites. Taking some of the world's most beloved music, the Chorus will sing these soaring songs as the orchestra plays from the original scores by Rachmaninoff, Borodin, Villa-Lobos and others. What could possibly climax this extraordinary concert? None other than Rachmaninoff's stirring Second Piano Concerto, played masterfully the the Chorus' own accompanist Richard Rogers while the Chorus sings "Full Moon and Empty Arms." This could possibly be one of the most dramatically compelling concerts the Chorus has ever produced! Ticket prices range from $10 - $40; they're available at City Box Office, or at the Ticket Window at Masonic Auditorium before each concert. -- Don Giberson djg@eng.sun.com (work) djg@pipper.com (personal) URL: <http://www.pipper.com/>
