The Oakland Ballet Company along with the Del Sol Quartet and the Volti singers conducted by Robert Geary is proud to present this profoundly poignant, but also inspiring interpretation of Angel Island by composer Huang Ruo. Angel Island portrays the anguish and aspiration experienced by hundreds of Chinese immigrants detained on Angel Island Immigration Station in the decades between 1910 and 1940.

Choreographed by AAPI artists Natasha Adorlee, Phil Chan, Lawrence Chen, Ye Feng, Elaine Kudo, Ashley Thopiah, and Wei Wang this work is an informative, impressionistic, sadly relevant, but ultimately uplifting tribute to the fortitude of the human spirit. It is a heartfelt collaboration by a singular group of extraordinary artists, not to be missed.

Do you love being strung along…in a delightful, musical way? Join members of the San Francisco Philharmonic Orchestra on May 8 for a thrilling evening of string masterworks at the historic Saint Joseph’s Arts Society. We’ll present a tour de force program that includes familiar favorites and new discoveries. Listen to the stirring strains of Barber’s 1936 Adagio for Strings, featured in many films and broadcast over the radio upon the deaths of Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy. From Barber’s 20th century America, journey back in time to St. Petersburg, Russia for Tchaikovsky’s 1880 Serenade for Strings, a four-movement exploration of musical themes that includes a timeless waltz and a haunting elegy. These classics will be joined on the program by Brahms’s iconic Hungarian Dance No. 5, Jenkins’s Palladio, and Turina’s fiery La Oración del Torero. There’s something for every music lover here, and we can’t wait to share this evening with you!
