We had a blast celebrating our concertmaster of nearly 30 years, Joe Edelberg, during our Shakespeare in Music Classical Series performances. The entire weekend felt like a true celebration of Joe’s incredible legacy, and we are deeply grateful for everything he has given the Symphony over the past 29 years.


As you swipe through this carousel, you’ll see just how much he is loved and appreciated by his fellow musicians, staff, and our community—from heartfelt tributes and surprise musical moments to standing ovations that said it all.


Highlights include:

1. A compilation video from the weekend

2. A proclamation honoring Joe from the City of Santa Rosa

3. Santa Rosa Mayor Mark Stapp presenting the proclamation

4. President & CEO Andrew Bradford at our post-concert champagne and cupcake celebration

5. A surprise musical tribute for Joe, including a personalized ditty by Principal Trombone Bruce Chrisp (video courtesy of @staceypelinka )

6. A performance by SRS English Horn player Jesse Barrett, joined by Symphony musicians (video courtesy of Stacey)

7. A raucous ovation for Joe, courtesy of @sfclassicalvoice


Thank you, Joe, for nearly three decades of artistry, leadership, and heart.
