The final concert of this Centennial Season opens with Richard Strauss’ epic tone poem “Thus Spake Zarathustra”, the opening bars of which are immortalized in Stanley Kubrick’s “2001:  A Space Odyssey.”  An Atlas of Deep Time is a World Premiere written especially for the occasion by Pulitzer and Grammy-award winning composer John Luther Adams.  The concert culminates with a 100th birthday celebration for the SDSO!
