Event description: The San Francisco Symphony gave its first concerts in 1911, the same year that Mahler died. Ever since, the orchestra has been known as a vibrant ensemble that offers a kaleidoscope of classics and new music. Leonard Bernstein protégé Michael Tilson Thomas (MTT) has a relationship with the orchestra that dates back to 1974, when he led the ensemble in Mahler's Symphony No. 9. Long regarded as an important interpreter of Mahler's works, MTT conducts the San Francisco Symphony in Mahler's Symphony No. 2, featuring Ann Arbor's own Grammy Award-winning UMS Choral Union.
