random notes
The Redwood Symphony, under the direction of Eric Kujawsky, will start the classical music season on the Peninsula side of the Bay with an especially colorful concert at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Los Altos United Methodist Church, 655 Magdalena Ave., in Los Altos.
Redwood's opening program, to be preceded with a lively pre-concert lecture at 6 p.m., is billed in its season brochure as "wicked, wistful, wild, wacky and wow!" Among the works these words describe are Frank Zappa's "G-Spot Tornado"; Beth Anderson's "Minnesota Swale," conducted by George Yefchak; Edgard Varese's "Density 21.5," with Michelle Davis as flute soloist; Mozart's Symphony No. 40 in G-Minor; and Peter Schickle's "P.D.Q. Bach: Bach Portrait," with Maestro Kujawsky serving as narrator and Kristin Link conducting.
