7th and 8th Graders attend San Francisco Symphony Orchestra rehearsal

On Wednesday 4th November, members of the 1st period orchestra went to an open rehearsal at Davies Symphony Hall, to see an open rehearsal of the San Francisco Symphony. The orchestra was preparing a concert of French works by Bizet, Ravel and Saint-Saens, conducted by Yan Pascal Tortelier. It was inspirational to hear the rich sound of the full symphony orchestra, and to see and hear how a professional orchestra rehearses. The students were great ambassadors for White Hill.
