Bookended by two spectacular Richard Strauss tone poems, Esa-Pekka Salonen leads Rewilding, the SF Symphony’s first commission from Gabriella Smith, reflecting her passion for
conservation and ecological reform. Jean Sibelius’s final symphony, the Seventh, distills symphonic form to its bare essentials.
