Formerly known as Symphony with a Splash, the Spokane Symphony’s new Intersect program works to introduce a new generation to classical music by bringing together a mix of local art forms in one concert. The first of these events kicks off this weekend with the symphony playing multiple modern Chinese and Chinese American composers' works, including Chen Yi’s “YangKo” from Chinese Folk Dance Suite (movement 2) and Zhou Tian’s A Thousand Years of Good Prayers. To balance that, the concert ends with Mozart's grandiose Jupiter symphony. Before the symphony’s hour-long performance, concertgoers are invited to sample Chinese cuisine created by local chef Jeremy Hansen. A three-course tasting is $15, or $10 with an Intersect series subscriber.
