Hope may be making a bid for that 21st-century title as well. Labeled "adventurous and brilliant" by The New York Times, he's known for his musical and stylistic versatility, which he displays in this special concert at Osher Marin JCC in San Rafael. This eclectic salute features pieces by Bach, Vivaldi, Bartok and Mendelssohn, along with modern works like Glass' Echorus, Takemitsu's Nostalgia, El-Khoury's Unfinished Journey and P��rt's "Darf ich..." for solo violin, tubular bells and strings.
