He will perform the Bruch Violin Concerto No. 1, and Beach Cities Symphony will perform Beethovenʼs Egmont Overture, op. 84 and Mendelssohnʼs Symphony No. 5 in D minor, op. 107.
Recognized worldwide as a musical phenomenon, Grammy-nominated Andrés Cárdenes parlays his myriad talents into one of classical musicʼs most versatile careers. A ferocious, passionate and personally charismatic artist; Cuban-born Cárdenes has garnered international acclaim from critics and audiences alike for his compelling solo violin, conducting, viola, chamber music, concertmaster and recorded performances.
