MTT and the San Francisco Symphony take  American Mavericks on tour to  Chicago (March 21),  Ann Arbor (March 22, 23, 24, 25) and New York  (March 27, 28, 29, 30). These concerts will examine the music of iconoclastic, revolutionary composers championed by MTT and the SFS, such as John Cage, Morton Feldman, Carl Ruggles, Edgard Varèse, and Charles Ives, and expand the maverick roster with commissions by Bay Area composers John Adams and Mason Bates. Concerts will feature performances by longtime SFS collaborators Jessye Norman, Emanuel Ax, Meredith Monk, Jeremy Denk, and the St. Lawrence String Quartet, among others.
