The Sofia Gubaidulina residency with the SF Symphony continues tonight and tomorrow with the US premiere of her Violin Concerto No. 2, , with the magnificent Anne-Sophie Mutter as the soloist, for whom the piece was written.

Anne-Sophie Mutter is classical music's attempt to attract the 18-34 male demographics. She's the symphony hall's answer to Monday Night Football. She can play the violin like anyone else, but she also happens to be seriously attractive. She'll play at Davies Symphony Hall on Monday 4/7 (a recital of Brahms sonatas with pianist Lambert Orkis), and we'll make the same recommendation as for the ballet: guys, take your girlfriend there, she'll think you're sensitive, cultivated, oh so sophisticated, and you'll have some eye candy to look at, you'll have a good time. You might even end up enjoying the music.
