Story
On Friday, the San Diego Symphony presented both the 2022 chamber opera ‘Tres Minutos” and the string quartet “El Correcaminos’ by Nicolás Lell Benavides at the Jacobs Music Center.
When a show causes many to reach for their Kleenex less than 30 minutes after the opening scene, that is typically a sign of a strong production. Scripps Ranch Theatre’s spectacular mounting of Tiny Beautiful Things has several tearjerker scenes throughout the performance.
San Diego Symphony guest conductor Elena Schwarz opted for the best of both worlds in her Saturday program, devoting her first half to a pair of contemporary works by John Adams and Thomas Adès. She balanced that challenge with Antonin Dvorák’s beloved Ninth Symphony ‘From the New World.’
