Summary: Welcome to this digital edition of Phillip Huscher's Program Notes for upcoming concerts by the CSO Nov 12-14. Edo de Waart returns with a lively program starting with Richard Strauss' mischievous Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks, a legendary CSO showpiece, followed by Mozart's Turkish Violin Concerto, played by rising young German violinist Augustin Hadelich. The concert ends with John Adams' striking Harmonielehre, inspired by a dream of an oil tanker suddenly pointing skyward and taking off like a rocket from the surface of San Francisco's Oakland Bay.
