The annual concert in Mission San Luis Obispo once again features an incredible quintet by Mozart, featuring two violas. Brahms' Sextet is up next, which shows the composer's mastery of this particular ensemble. The Festival Brass kick off the second half with sonorous pieces by Gabrieli, and living American composer John Adams' 1992 Chamber Symphony finishes the program, conducted by Scott Yoo.
