Michael Tilson Thomas conducts the San Francisco Symphony performing Coplan's Organ Symphony and Mahler's Symphony No. 5 on September 3, 2010 in Davies Symphony Hall.

Lauded for their “fresh and daring” (The New York Times) approach to repertoire, the San Francisco Symphony and Michael Tilson Thomas come to Carnegie Hall with a program that finds an unexpected dialogue between American works and Viennese classics. Quintessential masterpieces for orchestra by Beethoven and Mozart are juxtaposed with the works of American composers Aaron Copland and Steven Mackey. Hear the live concert Wednesday at 8pm on Carnegie Hall Live.
