It looks like it might be happening…in 2027-2028, Conductor/Music Director Matilda Hofman will lead the premiere of a new double concerto for viola and saxophone with the ever fabulous RE:duo, consisting of saxophonist Wilson Poffenberger, and violist Elsie Bae Han, and the Diablo Symphony Orchestra. I have not a clue what the piece will be like, but given the wide range of music that Elsie & Wilson play, it is safe to say that it is likely going to be something that involves writing which features the exceptional qualities of these two remarkable musicians. This will be an exciting project to sink my teeth into, and I am eager to work with Elsie, Wilson, Matilda, and the entire Diablo Symphony Orchestra community.
