The regular subscription series of the San Francisco Symphony has come to season's end, but that doesn't mean that the SFS has ceased making beautiful music in the summertime. B.A.R. readers might be interested to know more about Mexican conductor Alondra de la P
arra, leading the orchestra July 22-25, including a free concert in Dolores Park celebrating the Mexican bicentennial; and about transgender pianist Sara Davis Buechner, who returns to the SFS this summer to participate in their Grand Finale concert conducted by de la Parra on Sat., July 24. In 1990, Buechner performed Mozart 's Piano Concerto No. 24 with the SFS and conductor Nicholas McGegan, when she was known as David Buechner. In 2008, she performed Beethoven 's Piano Concerto No. 1 with the Oakland East Bay Symphony. Find out more at www.sfsymphony.org.
