Small correction: Friday's concert is not the Oakland Symphony's season opener. They opened on October 17, with Adolphus Hailstork in the audience as well as on the program.
I feel fortunate to know little and be a nobody, as it allows me to forego the world premier and see The Monkey King Tuesday night. Many fewer competing programs!
I heard the Poiesis Quartet last week when they gave a noon concert in Campbell Recital Hall at Stanford. The program was different from what you heard although some of the pieces were the same. I agree. The music was really fun and interesting and their performance was great. The audience loved them.

Ewps! Thanks so much for the correction. Fixing now.

Ah, lovely comments on the Poiesis, and thank you.
Heavens, there is even more going on this weekend than I'd realized.
