Composer/ pianist Sheli Nan premieres SAGA-PORTRAIT OF A 21ST CENTURY CHILD, performed as part of the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra 10th Anniversary Gala June 9, 2012

Composer and pianist Sheli Nan performs with the San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra in a rare concert appearance. Composer Sheli Nan has the unique ability and skills to understand the aesthetics of both the Baroque world of music and the contemporary world of music. In keeping with her classical focus, Nan’s latest work, "SAGA-Portrait of a 21st Century Child" is an achingly beautiful social commentary told through a musical lens.

The Overture of Sheli Nan’s "SAGA-Portrait of a 21st Century Child" will be premiered by The San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra as part of their 10th Anniversary Gala. Mark Alburger, Director of the San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra, will conduct the work.
